The Cranes visit our sit-out group

During the pandemic a few of us at the end of Eagle Court Court, in urgent need of social contact, began sitting outside at the end of our driveway.  We have kept to that tradition, without the social distancing, for some five years now. 

It was also around the time of the pandemic that Sandhill Cranes began paying a visit to our neighborhood -- we've watched them come and go, have babies, stroll around the grounds, mostly feeding and pooping as wildlife is prone to do. 

But we never expected this.
