Sunday morning our local radio station, KAXE Northern Community
Radio, passed along a birding alert called in by a listener.
Thousands of Sandhill Cranes along US2 at Glacial Ridge. They were
not there yesterday. We arrived around 2 PM and found that indeed,
there were thousands of cranes congregated in the AG fields just west
of the Tilden Junction Gravel operation. I have little confidence in
my estimating skills, but I did try counting a group and multiplying
up the number of groups of that size. Perhaps 2,500-3,000?
Was anyone else up here looking for the C. Teal on Sunday? Did you
come across the Sandhills?
