Sandhill crane in Calcasieu Parish

Never knew they came to Louisiana but just saw about 100 of them in a dirt field.
When’s the season?

Surprised there hasn't been a push for one yet. They've been coming down this way for quite a while, and by the hundreds in the Sweetlake-Bell City-Holmwood area.
I have pictures of them from probably 10 or 12 years ago, and that likely wasn't the first time they've shown up in that area.
ETA: first Calcasieu Parish record reported to eBird is 1998.

Can’t trust coonasses with 40 or so Whooping Cranes hanging in the area as well.
Good call in my opinion.

I was driving in Cameron parish in hwy 27 and saw a field full. At least I thought they were Sandhills

We've had a group coming around Oak Ridge for the last probably 15 years. Usually 100-200 but at times I've seen 400-500. I've often thought about taking my .17 and sniping one and grilling it medium rare. Use the legs for a gumbo. Just one or two a year, nothing major. But alas that is illegal.

There is none... and there should be. Saw hundreds in a few fields yesterday between Bell City and Holmwood
