Sandhill Cranes

I've been working on this for the pass few weeks and I feel a little proud it, other than the fact that this is my first water color in a very long time. I can point out a few things wrong here and there and say that I'm a bit out of practice. But, mind you, I've bought several book on watercoloring to study things. They've helped me with this one quite a bit.

(The one part I hate the most is the water ripples. They were so hard to do. I'll try it again someday with some more practice with my next watercolor pic)

Anywho, this is a family of birds I have grown a liking of ever since I first saw them when I came to Florida. The Sandhill Cranes. I think they are very beautiful birds and wanted to do a painting like this for a long while.
