Even tho temps have warmed up to low 30's, it seems too cold for as much wild-life activity as we saw this morning!
Husband and I went up near MIS (Michigan International Speedway) for breakfast....on the way, we saw 3 pair of sand hill cranes....each pair a few miles apart! (We still have lots of snow on the ground too!) Coming home on back roads, we found a huge flock of pheasant.....a little ways down the road, a flock of wild turkeys!
Two nights ago, on the way back from Toledo, we came across a herd of deer in a field....again on a back road. We turned around to take a better look.....both of us counted 47 deer....then noticed about 14 more sprinting across the cornfield to meet them!!
Oh....and one of the best parts....a COUGAR
was spotted and photographed a couple days ago in Tecumseh, Mi....only 15 minutes away! (Talked about this in the "What made this mark in the sand" thread")
Who says Nature 'aint interestin'????......p
Saw some neat "stuff" this mornin'.....

Taking a place on the bench beside Snow... I've never seen a sandhill crane and would love the opportunity!
