Hi all, Just got a call from Ron Demmy, preserve manager with DNR's Division of Natural Areas, who reports 32 Sandhill Cranes in a field near the jct. of Campbell and Lockbourne East roads in Pickaway County. This is near Stage's Pond State Nature Preserve and not far from Ashville. The last few days has brought in incredible influx of these amazing birds. One should be on the lookout for them anywhere while out and about.
