Book Synopsis
The sandhill crane, most often seen, is within easy reach of bird-watchers in the center of the North American continent. Less visible is the whooping crane, struggling back from near extinction. Introducing these two crane species, this title describes their seasonal migrations, natural habitats, breeding biology, call patterns, and dancing.
