Overview
Interesting Facts
- The sandhill cranes travel as much as 350 miles per day while migrating . They fly at anywhere from 14 to 51 miles per hour in a V formation--often as high as 12,000 feet.
- Their nesting grounds are through the northern United States and extreme northeast Siberia, and they arrive in early to mid May. Nests in the wetland areas are made from dominant vegetation, while the nests in drier areas are sparsely prepared. These cranes usually begin breeding at 7 years old and mate with only one partner for life. Two eggs are laid and both sexes incubate. These eggs hatch in 29-32 days, and the nestlings can walk immediately. This trait is why the young cranes are called colts .
- These cranes also preen themselves with mud , vegetation and insects to take on a more reddish brown color. This helps camouflage the young, which are rusty colored and have no red patch because the bald spot is covered with the same down over the rest of their body. The red patch on the adult changes with stimulation. The more stressed the bird is, the more intense the red patch becomes.
- In the spring , cranes are very territorial to protect their nests. However, they become more social beginning in August to get ready to migrate for the winter.
- Big Bird from Sesame Street is a crane chick, or colt.

Biology
Diet
The diet consists of a variety of foods, including aquatic invertebrates , insects, small vertebrates , seeds, fruits, frogs , rodents, insects, bulbs, seeds, and berries . While on migration, they also eat waste grain,other plant materials , and field animals. The Sandhill Crane searches for most food on the ground or in the water and will eat almost any food item it finds.
Reproduction
The breeding season
begins in late January, peaks in March, and extends
into August. Breeding habitat
consists of grasslands, wetlands, and
marshes, usually associated with fresh water
. The saucer-shaped
nest
is placed on the ground
or on a mound of plant material
to raise
the nest above the surface of the water. Both adults
build the nest
out of sticks
, twigs
, moss, and other plant material. The female
lays
1-3 (usually 2) eggs
that she and the male take turns
incubating
for 28-32 days. The young are precocial and leave the nest within
2 days. The young begin feeding independently about 2 weeks after
hatching
and can fly when they are 65-70 days old. The young stay
with the parents until the following spring
.
Young cranes can capture
their own food at an early age, but they
are frequently fed by the parents. In 67-75 days, the colts
have
fledged and can make the migration south. Usually, only one of the
colts survives long enough to fledge
. The sandhill
parents raise
their young for 10 months.
Breeding Habitat: Wetland-open water Clutch

Migration
Some migrate
Its trumpeting, rattling call can sometimes be heard for more than a mile . This is because the trachea loops once in the sternum instead of going directly to the lungs like most birds.
