Here’s something you don’t see every day, a Leucistic Sandhill Crane. This fall while watching the sandhills come in waves from the northwest to circle and land in the marsh, one really stood out as the sun highlighted its white wings. At first I thought Whoooper, but no black on the end of the wings. Maybe a Trumpeter, but no. Turned out to be a leucistic sandhill crane. How rare are these? A quick internet search yielded some interesting results. One article said the rarity of these are probably 1% of 1% of the population, so it is possible that it’s a one in a million.
