All,
After 4 attempts,  I finally got a glimpse of the 3 Sandhill Cranes that have 
been residing along Mossy Creek Road - 
Rt. 757,  in the fields around a  large yellow house with white wrap-around 
porch 
 Box #398. The birds were spotted by several birders feeding in the fields 
adjacent to the house. However, they also were seen flying across Mossy Creek 
Road and slipping down behind a row of tall trees along the banks of Mossy 
Creek 
opposite of the yellow house. 
Just before dusk I saw the birds in flight heading back from Mossy Creek to 
the cornfields/woods behind the yellow house #398. A local fellow, who has sort 
of kept an eye on these birds, stated that he thought they roosted in the 
woods behind the cornfields above the house. I don't know anything about the 
natural history of Sandhill Cranes, so I don't know if they would be likely to 
roost in trees in the woods or not. 
Have to do a little research, I suspose.
