First we played peek-eye through the fence.

Then his friend blinked – seemed all the cranes we saw that day blinked for me. I swear I see the world in their eyes.

Look deep into my eyes. . .

Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign MckLinky. :) MM started on Sept 29, 2008 – Thanx to all of you for helping make it such a fun start to the week!

Interesting shots, wonderful details.

I feel bad for the second one because it’s eye is very cloudy and I’m sure it affects it’s vision.

I love that you caught the second lens eye blink. My parrot has a much clearer looking lens than the crane does. I wonder what the bird sees like that.
