Nebraska & Sandhill Cranes

Jan and I did make our annual sojourn to Nebraska and were not disappointed. Estimates put the Sandhill Crane migration at 50,000. By mid-March, there will be about 500,000. We saw one Whooper - a breathtaking observance even at a great distance. From Nebraska through Iowa, we counted 20 eagles. Meadowlarks and blackbirds are also in Nebraska. Shouldn't be long before they make their way to Wisconsin. I plan to upload some crane photos and will post one or two here when I finally get to it.
