Sandhill sighting in Sweetlake
 
Saw about 200 or so sandhill cranes today on the corner of pine pasture and arceneaux. Quite a sight to see. Parked and watched for a little while. Sorry for poor pic quality. didnt want to get too close.

Cool man!!! I could've thrown a rock at the ones that flew over me the other day(I wouldn't of course). You was scared a Warden was hiding around there waiting for you to get too close? Just joking.:D

Nope just dont want to disturb them. Would like to keep them in the area.

I have seen them three times this year around Vinton. All the flocks where around 20 or so birds.

Top Dawg 12-17-2011 09:41 PM

They get in that area south of holmwood every single year I can remember. They are like clock work and it's always pretty much the same field. You can bank on em being there every year.

cajunforeman 12-17-2011 11:49 PM

Yep, even seen them there every year for a very long time.

DeeCee 12-18-2011 05:45 AM

There were more in the Holmwood area last year than I had ever seen around here. Several hundred

Those things are fun to hunt, and eat very good, I have bagged several over the past few years. They decoy well.

That was the mother load we saw yesterday, never seen so many at once.

DUCKGOGETTER 12-20-2011 11:07 AM

Went by there sunday to show my 10yr old son and them suckers were right up against the road. We watched them for about an hour just messing around in that field.
