Default PHOTO OF THE WEEK, Sandhill Cranes

The Sandhill Crane is the more common relative of the vary rare and
endangered Whooping Crane.

Every year tens of thousands of them migrate from the northern US and
Canada to the Gulf of Mexico for the Winter. We see them flying over in
large "V" formation flocks in Spring and Fall.
