Field Notes

Description:

We saw this group of cranes fly over, but they must have changed their minds because a few minutes later they turned around and landed in the marsh while we looked on

Habitat:

Beluga wetlands and forest next to Beluga Lake. Alaska is part of their breeding/migration range
