Bird Week IX - Campaign / by Dave Hileman

Finally the whole ticket for Head and Vice Bird are active as we near the close of the polls tomorrow. These two Sandhill Cranes were shot flying around our campsite in Fairbanks. We stayed at the end of a private air strip at the invitation of the owner whom we met at breakfast a couple of weeks earlier. It seemed to botther these two that we were using thier private patch of grass. But they never flew far. It ia also appropriate that I am showing a couple today as Cindy and I are at a wedding this afternoon.
