Sandhill Crane Family #14 Where do the Colts sleep?

I thought either the parent sat on them or they snuggled up close to the parent.
What I found was "snuggled up close" was an understatement! As soon as the parent
sat down, the colts were burrowing into the feathers ... they climbed in and under,
The whole thing took less than 10 seconds .. and they were gone!!

Cool set. I would have never known they were there without the entire set.
