[cobirds] Sandhill Cranes Larimer/Boulder

2023-10-23 Thread Raymond Davis
At 5:48 PM, we had 800 to 1,200 sandhill cranes flying overhead.
We are 3 miles west of Lyons, and they were heading South (duh) and
a little westish.Maybe heading for the water behind the dam at Nederland
 for the night???   Or maybe veering back east to Golden, etc.

I had two groups fly over my house  in Keenesburg (Weld County) yesterday 
morning around 11:30. They were headed south-southwest as well.

Right now at 12:15 pm I had a group of Sandhill Cranes fly over me in northwest 
Fort Collins, right over Reservoir Ridge Natural Area.  They were at first in V 
formation, basically, and then they circled out of formation to gain height, 
making noise the whole time, then they headed off in a south, southwest 
direction more or less in formation.  There were approximately 80-100 
individuals.

At 10:30 today, Sunday, a huge flock of Sandhills flew high overhead, maybe 
130-150 birds, circling and then forming.  This was at Bingham Hill Road, so 
look south along the foothills from now on.

[cobirds] Sandhill Cranes, Larimer County

2020-11-19 Thread Libby Edwards
At about 9 am this morning at the intersection north of Fort Collins of County 
Roads 19 and 80, where there are huge fields on either side of the road of corn 
stubble, we saw many groups of sandhill cranes feeding, perhaps up to 4-500 in 
all the fields.  Driving back by these fields from Red Mountain Open Space at 
4:30 pm, we were surprisingly treated to all of them lifting off and flying in 
unorganized groups towards the south.  In the distance we could see them 
forming one big group, waving across the horizon.

My question is this: do they migrate at night now, or will they find a place to 
roost again for the night?  This was a magnificent experience seeing all those 
cranes lift off for us unexpectedly.

Large flocks of migrating Sandhill Cranes are passing over with the 
current wind storm. They are flying south and rather high. I saw several 
flocks numbering in the hundreds between 3:45 and 4pm. We are located in 
west Windsor near I 25.

We had 2-3 Steller's jays in our backyard every day from October 29th to
March 2, as we have seen and recorded them.  Most delightful, most unusual,
and they seem to have split for higher places now.
