Sandhill Cranes in NE NC



Yerterday, 01/14/02, I saw two Sandhill Cranes in the field behind my house
that
borders a pond. I'm certain that these birds were Sandhills as I drove out
in the field to get a closer look, leaving my car and walking on foot with
my 13 yr. old son. For us this was a first for seeing them in the area. I
have contacted the authorities of this rare-bird sighting. They remained in
the
field all day long as I spotted them around 9 AM and they were still here
around 4:30 PM.

I was hoping that they might decide to hang aroound for a few days but have
not seen any signs of them today.

The week we had snow we also saw an Oregon Junco at one of our feeders.
