Thanks for your nice comment, micritter.

Thanks for the warning. They'll be here soon.

And also thanks for alerting us to the recent change in the scientific name. Here is what I found in Wikipedia: "The sandhill crane was formerly placed in the genus Grus but a molecular phylogenetic study published in 2010 found that the genus, as then defined, was polyphyletic. In the resulting rearrangement to create monophyletic genera, four species, including the sandhill crane, were placed in the resurrected genus Antigone that had originally been erected by the German naturalist Ludwig Reichenbach in 1853."
