[cobirds] Winter and Spring Collide in San Luis valley

There still are 3-5,000 Sandhill Cranes in the San Luis valley, though some have been leaving under favorable conditions. Today, after our recent 8 inches of wet snow, the seasons of winter and spring collided and it made for some unique viewing opportunities. Most birds are still on the Monte Vista Refuge at the usual turnouts. The auto tour loop is still the best to get close views. The birds in this photo waited until the fog lifted a bit before heading out to feed.
