Journaling: For a few days in November, the Turkey Creek neighborhood was treated to a visit by this pair of Sand Hill Cranes. Although Florida has a resident population of Sand Hill Cranes, the ones that visited Turkey Creek for a few days in early November probably were part of the huge flocks that migrate in late fall from Canada and the upper Midwest. They are tall birds standing 3 to 5 feet tall with wingspans from 5 to 7 feet. Sand Hill Cranes mate for life and can live upwards of twenty years. 11/5/15
