Sandhill Crane (Grus canadensis) - a photo on Flickriver

Sandhill Crane (Grus canadensis)

            The colts are growing fast and in need of bigger meals, but can they handle a big gulp?  This fierce little guy tried hard.  The parent helped by whittling the little bird down until it was small and pliable enough to swallow.  Apparently a crane's throat does not expand like a fish-eating bird's does.
