[cayugabirds-l] Sandhill cranes chicks

2010-06-10 Thread Susan Fast
I spent much time this morning on Carncross Rd. (N. Montezuma Wetlands
Complex) watching the 2 adult SANDHILL CRANES and their 2 CHICKS.  The
chicks are about half grown now, walk like the adults, forage for
themselves, and have a good growth of primaries on their long wings.  They
cannot fly yet, however.

I watched a series of behaviors that, to me, indicate the chicks are quite
bright.  During the first hour of observation, an adult made 2 attempts to
demonstrate the mechanics of flight.  It took the customary 3-4 steps,
flapped its wings and flew low about 125'.  One of the chicks soon tried to
emulate.  There were 3 tries and each was different.  All started with
extensive wing flapping.  In the first case, the chick hopped forward about
6 feet.  It did get off the ground by hopping, but only a couple of inches.
In the second try, the wing flapping was followed by a rapid run.  This
looked promising to me, but failed to get the bird in the air.  For the
third attempt, the chick actually galloped (like a kid playing horsey).  I
can't remember ever seeing a bird gallop.

I think that after each unsuccessful attempt, the chick changed its tactics.
