Captured on the first day of a Sandhill Crane chick’s life, this intimate photograph records a tender moment of connection as parent and newborn touch beaks. While the wobbly, hours-old "colt" takes steadying first steps, the parent continues to tend to a second egg still waiting to hatch in the nest. This print captures the fragile, beautiful threshold of new life in the heart of the Florida wetlands.
This photo was a selected winner and displayed at the Elliot Museum as part of the “Florida’s Natural Beauty Photography Awards” exhibit in 2026.
