Refuge Thursday

A partly cloudy sky with warmer temperatures mad a nice morning visit to the refuge. There were three pairs of Sandhill Cranes around that I saw, more that I heard.  Kind of hard not to hear them!
My first of the year Black-crowned Night Heron as well as another first - Yellow-headed Blackbirds.
Goofy GBH's at the rookery helped make it enjoyable.
