I saw 500+ Sandhill Cranes at 10:15 AM, over my home in the Love Lady 
community-- in three different groups. Some were soaring higher to gain 
altitude  Others were flying at different altitudes and calling constantly. 

Then at 10:30 AM another group of  75+ came over at the same altitude and 
direction.  Both groups were flying South-with slight winds from the 
North--high thin clouds,Temp.-36 degrees.

These sightings were of some help in my disappointment for missing the Whooping 
Cranes.
