Subject: [LCBirds] Strange Crane

Just before noon thirty as we were walking our dogs in the hills north of
Benton City we heard and spotted a group of sandhill cranes flying south.
In the middle of the group was one white crane with black wing tips. Of
course our initial thought was Whooper!!, but this bird had about a 15 - 20%
shorter wingspan than the sandhills.
