Anthony,
Interesting bird. Was I with you when you saw it? It seems like I might have
been. Was it up at Sauvie Island??

Subject: [leasbirds] Common Crane at Muleshoe NWR
Greetings All:
I just received word from Justin Bosler that he has discovered a Common Crane
at Muleshoe NWR (Bailey County). The bird is currently at the eastern end of
Goose Lake and is associated with a largish flock of Sandhill Cranes. Justin
is off to grab his digital camera in hopes that he can digiscope a picture.
The only Common Crane I have ever seen was a bird in the Pacific Northwest that
was, I believe, deemed to be of unknown provenance and I don't know what is
thought of the birds seen in the plains states during the last decade or so.
The bird may well be 'uncountable' but Justin wanted me to put the word out.
