I enjoy watching inter species interactions. This lone crane was standing near the cranes when two of them appeared to decide it needed to be further from them.

Cranes land here on their way from NM after a stop over in Monte Vista CO. They rest and feed here,spending the night. We also have ones that are winter residents in this county who come here on day trips. It is difficult to tell which ones are coming in although sometimes when they drop down from a high altitude it is a good bet they are coming from Monte Vista CO.
