Folks I actually believe a visit to the Refuge for cranes will be worthwhile into the month of December. As the years unfold we are getting increasingly larger numbers of sandhills each fall (I remember being overjoyed about 6 years ago when a flock of 75 decended upon Knox Marcellus Marsh!). I suspect the "word" has being traveling throughout Crane Nation that Montezuma is a safe place to rest and refuel. Hence the larger numbers of birds with each passing year. P.S. once here, locating them can be a challenge (visitor center, Knox Marcellus, surrounding fields are good places to start). I'm told that Knox Marcellus around sunrise is sometimes productive. Good luck a happy "hunting"! Sar
