Cranes returning in late afternoon light
People waiting for the birds returning to roost for the night
Nearly full moon
Pre-dawn glow to the east
Early arrivals waiting for a dawn launch of roosting birds
Our experience in the past was that the Geese would launch en masse near dawn and the Cranes would leisurely depart in small groups after the Geese had left. But this morning, the Cranes started leaving in large groups well before the Geese started to leave and then the Geese started leaving in much smaller groups than expected.
