These guys used to flock to a marsh behind my house, barking and honking like a pack of dogs. Always woke me up too early, annoying but happy to see them return every year!
I would bet you I saw 50,000 of these guys today and when they fly and make that trill it can be damned near deafening when a thousand or so do it. I am also happy when they return. One thing I have never got was a photo of one with one of their colts. They don't breed around here. Seen pics and they are very cute. I hear Kearney, NE is the place to see them. They estimate 600,000 or more stop over there.
