While
I
love
the
Sandhill
Cranes,
at
this
point
I
am
more
interested
in
other
great
wildlife
spread
over
thousands
of
acres.
The
new
walking
/
biking
trail
extends
through
the
woods
east
of
the
visitor
center
before
joining
the
road
to
Densmore
slough.
On
a
2
hour
walk
a
week
ago,
I
saw
over
15
different
birds
(including
some
more
unusual
like
Brown
Creeper
and
Yellow-breasted
Sapsucker)
walking
the
trail
after
a
brief
visit
to
the
Cranes
near
the
visitor
center.
I
like
the
new
blind
but
wish
some
provision
could
also
be
made
for
a
blind
on
the
observation
tower
end.
The
Whooping
Cranes,
when
present,
seem
to
favor
that
side.
The
glass
front
of
the
tower
badly
distorts
pictures
from
the
tower.
I
highly
recommend
the
new
trail
for
a
chance
to
spot
birds,
squirrels,
deer
and
racoons!
The
ranger
staff
are
very
friendly,
knowledgeable
and
helpful,
especially
for
new
visitors.
Once
the
new
visitor
center
renovatioon
and
education
pavalion
are
completed
in
a
few
months,
this
will
be
a
real
jewel!
