About this time several years ago I went looking for Whooping Cranes and the Aransas Wildlife area, their winter home.
Scanned the area for hours looking for the big white birds, no luck.
Drove back into Rockport and there was two of them eating at a guy’s deer feeder.
They can adapt.
I’ll never forget the King of the Hill episode where Hank accidentally shot and killed a ‘whuppin crane’.
