yesterday
i learned
baby sandhill cranes
are called
colts
because they’re born with legs
that are so long and strong
they can run around
within 24 hours after hatching.
(looks like they’re wearing tall boots with heels)
always something new to learn
the world never fails to amaze me.

One of the best things about blogging is that I learn something new multiple times a day, every day. Including this. 😊
Best wishes, Pete.
