Default Cranes?

Both Sandhill cranes and brown pelicans are migrating north right now.
What's
amazing is that they pass over my house daily at about 2pm. I hear their
honking and
there they are. They are about half mile up. I tell them apart by their
flight
pattern. Brown pelicans will swirl around in large circles together as they
sweep up
north. Cranes fly in V formation, but in lines, not in swirls like the
pelicans.
They sound similar.

Thanks for the info. It is truly a magical time of year for naturalists.
