Observation details
Found near the the fence at the bend in the road where the house is. Continuing 2 tall, large white cranes with red crown with a spot of black at the top of the head, black mask and mostly black bill with some lighter reddish area at the base. Yellow eyes. Both birds have silver bands low on their right leg above the foot, as well as green bands higher above the knee and radio transmitters on their legs, but only one bird’s transmitter appears to still have an antenna; we watched them for about a half hour as they walked throughout the field foraging. They gradually got to the other end of the field from us when they began to call loudly and I was able to record it from about 200 yards. photos
