[cobirds] Sandhill Cranes, Boulder County yesterday

Finally!  After spending the last few weeks as one of very few remaining holdouts who had not seen sandhill cranes this fall, I figured it just wasn't gonna happen for me this year :(.   Then yesterday I took a lunchtime walk and saw four just after noon, flying southwest about 1.5 miles east of Hwy 36 and Yarmouth Ave in north Boulder :).  At first I figured they were probably geese as I wasn't very close, but raised my binocs and Voila!  After I saw them, they vocalized just a little.  They circled a couple of times but didn't seem to be gaining much altitude and kept flying southwest.
