Sandhill Cranes



At 4:15 p.m. in Haywood County, N.C. I heard and saw 11 Sandhill Cranes.
They were located about 3 miles east of the intersection of Upper Crabtree
Rd. and Hwy. 209 about 4 miles north of the intersection of Hwy. 209 and
Interstate 40.  In general, this is the area where Liner Creek Rd., Upper
Crabtree Rd. and Mountain Crabtree Rd. come together.  The three adults
present first heard the Sandhill Cranes calling but couldn't see them.
Shortly thereafter, all eleven were seen flying and calling for several
minutes before they were visually lost against the mountains and could no
longer be heard.
