Wer'e expecting!



















I am so excited to say my cranes will be expecting here for the 4th time that I know of. For several days this week they have been building a nest fast and furious, picking grasses and building a platform. They are actually on a small wet island and it is very low and a big rain scares me now, and as I write this, it is raining...
But on Thursday or Friday, she began nesting, (see what happens when I don't fish one night, (Thursday) I saw the nest Friday and she got up and could see one big egg.
They are two months early this year for some reason, the warmth I suppose. They have hardly had their honeymoon phase from rushing their kids off and here we go again.
Love it!
You know who will be monitoring for the next 30 days, that's about all it takes...
