We revisit Jay Shefsky’s story about sandhill crane's migration that takes them by Chicago
Each fall, thousands of sandhill cranes fly over Chicago as part of their migration to the southern U.S. But last year more cranes than usual flew directly over the city, due in part to an early cold snap up north and westerly winds that pushed them to the lakeshore. We revisit Jay Shefsky’s story that captured these birds in flight.
