One day I was walking my dog at the edge of the forest. In the field a large flock of Sandhills were standing. In the forest were hundreds of crows in the trees. The cranes were squawking loudly in unison. When they quieted down the crows began cawing even louder. They went back and forth taking turns singing as my pup and i stood quietly for an hour listening in awe. Magical moment.
