   Great picture! We had a couple land in our field and they are so big, that from a distance, I thought, no maybe those are deer???
   Then they vocalized and I got closer. It really is exciting isn’t it?

   Jack Hanna brought a sandhill crane onto the Letterman show last week. It was amazingly tall with such a looooooooooong neck! Are they migrating over Wyoming?

   Yesterday I took my son to the shooting range, and 2 Sandhill’s flew right over us while he was shooting. It was awesome.

   I must have this as a print! Cranes are my favorite birds and I love their symbolism. I even have a tattoo of one.

   aw, makes me vacation-home-sick now that I am back at my desk. The birds were amazing in Mississippi. (and yes, I sing the Mi-crocked letter song when I type it….)

   Thanks for the pic…

   Oh, swoon! One of my favorite birds…their calls are amazing. They migrate in flocks for a couple weeks in the middle of Washington state…went to go see them for the first time this year. To hear the calls by the thousands is transcendent.

    I live in Dawson City, YT, many many miles North of you, where these very cranes are headed, and where their cousins have been crooning overhead for days. What a great treat to find a connection beyond practical footwear and critter love with your site! Thanks!

    Has anyone visited the Crane Foundation in Baraboo, WI? If you like/love cranes, it’s a wonderful place to tour. There you may see a representation of almost all cranes that exist in the world. How wonderful to actually see them flying!!

    I have seem some of there babies here in Florida these past few days. There is a large group of at least 30 of them that fly over my house each night as they leave the cow pastures.
