A few days ago a lone Sandhill Crane was well-described flying over in NW Huntingdon Co, Camp Blue Diamond by Gabriel Imler.

Subject: Crane flying with canada geese?
Yesterday while driving in Park Forest I saw a flock of about 15 canada geese flying in formation and headed North. At the back of the formation was a bird with a straight neck and long legs stretching out behind it. My first impression was a sandhill crane, but I only caught a glimpse of their silhouettes before they went overhead. Has anyone ever observed something like this, and are there other possibilities I should consider?
