We have been fortunate to witness the spectacle of tens of thousands of Sandhill Cranes covering the fields of Nebraska on our drives out to Utah in the early springtime. The first time we seen it was a truly overwhelming experience. For miles there are cranes in every field and White Pelicans in all the ponds.
Sandhill Cranes can be seen right here in Ontario with some even nesting locally.
The Sandhill Crane is a large species of North American crane.
They are slate gray and often have a beautiful rusty colour on the upper parts. Adult birds have a pale cheek and red skin on the crown.
Grains and invertebrates in marshes, grasslands and prairies form their diet.
