Video clips of Sandhill Cranes feeding before leaving Canon City

[SeEttaM .]

I got to watch the family of Sandhill Cranes that spent the week in Canon City as they fed in an ag field that had manure spread over it last week.  They were close enough I could see them using their bills to pick through the clumps of manure as they searched for insects and grain.  I got two pretty short video clips of this feeding behavior I have uploaded to my Birds and Nature blog.  Also on my blog are some photos of them yesterday as they circled and gained altitude to apparently resume their migration north.
