Crane season started


5:th of September 2009
Last week the number of Cranes seems to be building up in the vallety, I counted 400 in one flock and could also identy 3 colour-ringed individuals, all swedish and all from the county. Tonight we enjoy a great evening at the roostingsite by Lake Fläcksjön for the first time this autumn. We see 3 White-tailed Eagles, some Marsh Harriers and Water rails before the Cranes start to come in. They seem to be late, at 20.15 a big group of at least 200 comes in, but not more. Nice though!

Congrats on sighting Cranes! I'm looking forward to the Fall migrants here in Kansas.
