Sandhill Cranes
« on: August 08, 2018, 12:45:02 PM »
Here's some photos of three sandhill cranes feeding in a friend's yard in Soldotna, Alaska.  They are considered a delicacy up here. I always know summer is short when the Sandhill cranes show up in Cordova on their migration south. On a good day, you'll see thousands of them and even on cloudy foggy days when you can't see them, you'll hear their unique cricket like vocalizations as they pass overhead.

Saw a couple in Idaho this spring. Cool bird.

Does Alaska have a season on them?
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.
