I went on Gary's field trip yesterday. After the official tour ended, I went over to Montezuma Audubon Center in Savannah to see if any Sandhill Crane's were there. The woman working the desk said 2 had been there that morning visible from visitor center. we chatted about that briefly then Susan Danskin phoned me to report the Sandhill crane on East Road by Knox Marsellus marsh.
When I first went there no luck as expected since she said it had flown away. I drove around areas to the west looking for it. Later ended up back on East road 2 times. The 2nd time, I clearly saw 2 SANDHILL CRANES flying over the woods behind the little airport there!! Did not re-find them during a little more driving "around the block" to Rt. 89 etc. Our bird trip experienced all sorts of challenging weather from sleet and blowing snow, cold winds, then mist, then pouring rain! But as I drove home from MNWR the sky cleared to lovely blue and the sun came out! Great ending to a great trip. Thanks, Gary!
