The Central Flyway population is much larger than ours on the west coast
states, and when I worked in North Dakota during the late 80s there were
maybe a dozen states with a fall hunt season. I remember a flock of 35K
east of Bismarck that had a big white one mixed in.
BTW, a second Sandhill Crane colt seen this week from the River S route,
north of the contact station. Last I heard, one of two colts in the hunt
area west of the auto tour route is with parents.
