flight of the sandhill cranes

This afternoon Mom, and Truett and I were sitting on the front porch in seventy degree weather, (which is about to change drastically over the weekend I might add. Boo hoo!) 

We watched Molly, our yard cat, dance along the screens.  We watched Roger follow her every move as they both meowed at each other.

However, it didn't take but one familiar sound for me to leap out of my rocking chair and shout, "They're here!"

And with that, I grabbed my camera, rushed out the front porch door, and looked to the sky.

There's nothing that stops my heart like the sounds of the Sandhill Cranes as they migrate South for the winter. 

I can't make the sound.  I don't know how to download the sound. 

But, I do know how to link you to the sounds of the Sandhill Cranes. 

Enjoy their beautiful music!

Just listened to them when I clicked on the above link. This is what I heard in Nebraska a few years ago, only a lot louder as there where hundreds and hundreds of them landing for the evening in fields all around me.
