This is the “baby” sandhill crane that came to Bird TLC this summer after finding out that no matter how big he thought he was, the dog was bigger. When he arrived, he fit in a little basket. Then he grew and grew and grew. Now he’s at the flight pens learning to be a crane so he can be released with a flock and learn how to migrate and someday have a family of his own. Until then, though, the volunteers at Bird TLC are still making sure he has all the superworms he needs to continue to grow… and grow… and grow.
This picture was taken by one of our volunteers, Darryl, as he arrived at the flight pens to give our baby breakfast.
Superworms cost money. Go to http://www.birdtlc.net and make a donation so we can keep him in the worms he needs.
