Observation details
I counted by 50’s and 100’s. Lori counted through her scope. We came to similar ballpark estimates and averaged to get about 1200 cranes. Cranes were near the duck blinds on dry lake bed by cattails on north side of Highline lake. We think they oosted in that sheltered place last night. The entire flock lifted at about 11 am and headed north to north-west in a massive kettle. Impressive.
