February 6, 2026

[In memory of Catherine O'Hara]

We are a pair of Sandhill Cranes
Wandering about, we've nothing better to do
I feel like we are forgetting something...
Oops! I'm missing an egg or two!

(No eggs were harmed in the making of this blog entry... she got back to her nest before a predator did. Although I'm pretty sure I heard the mom yelling "KEVIN". )
