On October 28, 2020, I posted One, Three, Four with five photos of Sandhill Cranes. Marina Kanavaki at Marina Kanavaki dot com commented: “One, three, four, three, three… that would make a very interesting beat!” I replied “¡Sí! C Em F Em Em as in C EmEmEm FFFF EmEmEm EmEmEm repeat.” I wrote lyrics and played the 1, 3, 4, 3, 3 chord progression on the guitar and recorded Cranes in the Key of C. I put the song together with footage of cranes flying above me, in a field, and over the Rio Grande.
Your videos always make me smile, Tim, thanks! They look and sound beautiful up there. 😊
Thanks, John.
Excellent Timothy 🤗
Thanks, Gabriela.
My pleasure. Maya and I sends hugs to everyone.
How’s your ankle? Does Maya lie on it and purr? Kitty purring helps speed healing.
It’s getting a bit better. Thank you for asking. I cannot have Maya lie on it. It’s too painful. She lies on me but not on my ankle 😊 How is everyone?
That’ too bad. We are plugging along.
🤗🤗🤗🤗
A beautiful video and I enjoyed your music, Tim!
Thanks, Lavinia.
I loved seeing the Corrales cranes in video, as well as your musical story.
Thanks, Susan.

Very impressive, so much cranes together. Nice video and sound !

Thanks, Maj & Sher. Happy to make you smile.
Quite a treat Timothy. Thank you for all your work. Loved it.
You are welcome, Shey. I’m happy you enjoyed it and thanks for dropping by.
Oh always happy to drop by.
Thank you, Shey. How are things up north?
Cald and dreich, n dark’n ah ats 3 30 pm. x
Dark at 3:30 pm is early. It’s depressing enough that it’s dark at 5:30 pm here.
Yeah, I do not like this time of year. I don’t mean the Christmas bit, just the dark. It feels like it is eleven at night when it’s only 4 o’clock. And it is dark in the mornings too till nearly 8.
I would think a lot of coffee would be in order. Do you drink coffee, tea or neither?
Coffee
Yes.
But win’es good too…
And whining about the darkness.
yep..lol whines and wi’ines..
What a cool video! I love the sound they make and with the music in the background, wonderful.
Thanks, Dale. They do make the coolest sound. I wake up to cranes calling out every morning this time of year.
So lucky!
Fabulous, Tim! I love the cranes making their crane noised throughout the song, lovely video too! Is key of C for ‘cranes’?
Hi Mia. I used the key of C for cranes. Seamed most appropriate. I’m happy you enjoyed it,
I did, thank you!
Smiles all around! Lovely video and great music.
wow – that’s a lot of cranes. And singing! in C! What a sweet sound.
Thanks, Holly. The cranes have such cool calls. I love their sound.
Tim, everything is music to your ears, then it’s music to ours. Adore this song, the images and sounds of the cranes.
Well done, and thank you!!!!
Awesome! I really like the song, how clever you are! The cranes are fascinating to watch!
Thanks, Tiffany. I’m happy you liked it.
Such a cool video! loved watching the birds !
Thanks, Smitha.
Great Song Tim and so enjoyed the video 🙂
