Waiting


Verona, Wisconsin, March 2015. Last year, the crane pair started nesting in our backyard on March 19. We're waiting to see if they return. I still wonder if something bad didn't happen to the family last year.

Maybe they've retired to FL.

We heard cranes in the backyard this morning at 5:52 AM. I popped up and looked out the window, but I saw nothing. Maybe they are rescouting the territory. Perhaps they are scouting the options.

Quite possibly.

I don't doubt they're very good at reconnoitering a prospective nesting spot.
