Observation details
The crane, found yesterday late afternoon by Aaron Ambos, was present when we arrived. It milled around amidst the Sandhill Cranes. We watched it for about 10 minutes, then it took flight and circled the area for a few minutes before disappearing. Description: larger and taller than the accompanying Sandhills. Long dark stripe on neck; contrasting white stripe running from eye along the back of the neck. Dark crown. Eye seen through scope appeared reddish amber. In flight, showed distinctive black primaries and secondaries, with a strongly fingered look to the outer primaries. Body gray. Bustle fairly pronounced. Great find!
