I was out for the Moon, I was very cloudy but I was waiting for an
opening, the Moon shining though the clouds already.

About two hours in the session, the Moon was visible, I was rea-
dy, impatient, and hoping for the best. As usual, I did some test
shots and worked my way through. 

My sweet daughter took care of the coffee so my mind was free. 
She asked "What was that noise?"… I hesitate and went for a mi-
grating flock of birds. I was sure of that but they were too far to
hear what birds and from where it was coming from. I had an eye
on the Moon and she was scanning for birds. "THERE IT IS I think"
she said!

I could not believe this! She bent down, looking over my shoulder
as to look to what I was seeing, "Egrets?" she guessed and I said
"Cranes!" Her hands were on my shoulders and her head tight to
mine… we were both breathless for a while I think.
