away.


I am not sure if the Sandhill Cranes do that loud trumpeting, but  
the first sound I heard could have been a Sandhill sound. The  
trumpeting was very loud and quite musical, and each time I heard it  
it was two, one and then a second later another. Not like anything I  
have heard before.


Ideas folks?
