Sandhill Cranes Passing Through


The Sandhill Cranes are migrating through our area. I haven't seen them, but I have seen White Pelicans (yes pelicans in Colorado) and American Avocets. There are also a lot of ducks. Here is a sketch of a crane at Bosque del Apache. Sometime we want to visit Monte Vista wildlife refuge. Cranes migrate through the San Luis Valley in March. We went skiing instead this year. Maybe next year we will go see them.
