Linda,
Thank you for the report.
Since you're the group's resident expert on whoopers, is there any word
on the fate of the chicks that were raised by sandhill cranes and did
not learn the right kind of mating dance needed to get a prospective
mate in the mood? That always seemed sad to me (for the people who put a
lot of work into the effort, but mostly for the confused and frustrated
cranes).
On topic: my wonderful display of Mariposa Autumn is finally dwindling
down.
