Sandhill Cranes

September 15, 2022 Elizabeth

Steve went for a walk down our dirt road today and he thought he was hearing sandhill cranes. He continued walking and spotted this pair in the back of the field. These aren’t great pics because they are very zoomed in. Interesting to see them out here. We usually only hear them flying over. Not sure why these 2 decided to land and stay a while.
