Birding Miller Island

Nancy and I birded Miller Island this evening to check up on our Sandhill Crane families. We were lucky and spotted both families. The first family spotted was too far away to get any images of them; they were feeding about a quarter of a mile off the road. The second family, with a chick, was feeding just seventy-five feet from the roadside, in tall grass. We are not sure whether this is the same family that was two chicks last month or not. Anyway, it was a treat for us to have viewed them up close again.
