Sandhill Crane/Antigone canadensis/Zuraw kanadyjski.
News showed up at Tarsiger on 7th April right after we arrived to Druskininkai with family. I would probably ignore it being in Poland but this looked like real coincidence. Just one hour drive. Early start on 8th April produced lucky find right at sunrise. The Crane appeared in a small flock European Cranes by the road near Ziuronys. The bird looked weird and tiny - like a "baby Crane". Feeding with other birds in a field gave really good views from a car. Birds where the flushed by White-tailed Eagle so I got out to stretch my bones and get some fresh morning air. And a cup of coffee with Pupa 🙂 Well deserved! Thanks Antanas Petraska and Marius Karlonas for your tips!
