Astrid we had over 100 sandhills on our survey yesterday (Friday) at Knox
Marcellus Marsh on the Montezuma Refuge near Seneca Falls, NY.
If past history is any indication, I expect still more to arrive before
they finally leave us for the winter. Last year's fall totals surpassed 300
birds!,
It is quite a sight to see such large congregations of these beautiful
creatures.
Good luck!! Hope you're successful in your search.
