Sandhill cranes landing at Pixley

A sedge of sandhill cranes flying in and joining a group of cranes on the ground at Pixley National Wildlife Area in the Central Valley area of California. Taken on December 19, 2022.
This video is a very small portion of the video that I took that day. I am in the process of editing and compiling. We estimate that we saw at least 5,000 and maybe 10,000 cranes on our three-and-a-half hour visit to Pixley. We would recommend that you try to see these birds in person (so to speak) if you have the opportunity. It is really amazing to see.
Read more about these awesome birds and the places that you can see them in very large numbers.

I will post more videos as I have opportunity.
