Sandhill Crane Cam

I can hear 'em! Can't really see 'em?”

“Their call has always reminded me of a pterodactyl or something prehistoric. Cranes are cool.

Neat site Bearmag, Thanks.”

“I've only heard it once, while I was in YNP. Didn't see the bugger there either but the call is interesting enough on its own.

BTW - I stole the link from the other side. Is it tainted?

:D”

“That's really cool! Thanks. I am watching it right now. Don't see any cranes but you can hear a couple faintly.”

“Cottonsox and I went down to the NWR below Dayton, TN and viewed the hundreds of cranes down there.

It was pretty awesome.”

the birds were seen at the florida trail conference.”

“Along with a ton of cranes this morning, there is also a deer in the background.”

“Where I live in central CA they made the Sandhill Cranes a commercial event. It's pretty good tho for fans of the cranes. Nowhere near the numbers of cranes on the Platt River tho. They're a huge bird and really great to watch up close.

“bearmagnet...johnhens won't mind that you brought this here...if you hadn't I was going to this week-end...I see lots of sandhill cranes around...just 45 minutes north we have a refuge that sees thousands and last year I think every lake I visited in the UP had at least one pair of cranes in residence...looking at them it's easy to see that they descended from dinosaurs....and their cry, I agree, it's prehistoric...wonderful birds....”

“I used to go to thaty preserve quite a bit :)”
