Colt on the Run

A little Sandhill Crane colt, just days old, is on the move trying to catch up with its sibling and parents. Look at those tiny dinosaur feet!

Worth Noting

Sandhill crane offspring can be ready to leave the nest and even start swimming just eight hours after they hatch. Although the chicks are independently mobile, they will stay with their parents up to 10 months after being born and follow them in migration. (Source: Birds & Blooms)
