["Todd V. Eastin" <eastin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The sandhill crane reported by Rob Biller on Dec. 21 is still in the vicinity 
of Beaverdam Creek at Quarry Bog Preserve.  I saw it just today in the 
diminishing light of dusk with low clouds spilling over Holston Mountain.  The 
call was unmistakable and was the only reason I noticed it from 150+yards away. 
 It flew in what seemed a very similar pattern to the one reported by Rob.  It 
flew out of sight over trees to the west.
