I have published a new blog post featuring the Tennessee Sandhill Crane Festival with great images of three crane species taken by Knoxville's Mike Nelson. Links to his video and his images of the hooded crane being chased by a sandhill are also provided. The post includes a picture of the front cover of the Discover Birds Activity Book, the children's activity book sponsored by the Tennessee Ornithological Society which will be available for the first time at the festival. Links at the end of the post include the festival schedule of events, directions to the refuge and Marcia Davis' Jan 7 article on the festival in the Knoxville News Sentinel. _http://vickiehenderson.blogspot.com/2012/01/tn-sandhill-crane-fest ival-celebrates.html_ (http://vickiehenderson.blogspot.com/2012/01/tn-sandhill-crane-festival-celebrates.html) Vickie Vickie Henderson Knoxville, TN Knox County _http://_ (http://vickiehendersonsketchbook.blogspot.com/) _vickiehenderson.blogspot.com_ (http://www.vickiehenderson.blogspot.com/) / _http://_ (http://vickiehendersonsketchbook.blogspot.com/) _vickiehendersonsketchbook.blogspot.com_ (http://www.vickiehendersonsketchbook.blogspot.com/) / _http://_ (http://vickiehendersonsketchbook.blogspot.com/) _vickiehenderson.com_ (http://www.vickiehenderson.com/) /
