Hi Bob and Tweets



A week or so ago I was scouting my upcoming WOS Conference (Wenatchee) Swauk
Pass trip I was out with Dan Stephens. When we arrived at the Camas Meadow
area at the end of Camas Creek Rd., Dan commented that we should watch in
the meadow for Sandhill Cranes. Apparently, a few birds are in the area in
the summer. Dan didn't mention anything about nesting, but did mention the
regularity of their being there.



Good Birding,

Dear tweeters,



On May 28 I saw a single Sandhill Crane flying over a fairly remote area in
the Wenatchee Mts., near the end of Camas Ck. Rd. Since its long past their
typical migration, one might speculate about possible nesting in a mountain
meadow up there somewhere; but it could also have just been a lone bird
moving around.



Any thoughts?
