Spring is 'springing'

The sandhill crane migration is going in earnest, now.  Several flights each day.  On my walk today, it was interesting to watch the main body circle high overhead while smaller flights caught  up and joined in.

No pictures.  They wouldn't show much more than dots against the sky anyway.
