Staten Island Road Entrance

As you turn onto Staten Island Road, you enter one of the most important wintering sites for Sandhill Cranes in the Pacific Flyway. Every year, thousands of cranes travel thousands of miles from as far as Alaska to rest and forage here.

Look for the tall gray birds with red caps feeding in harvested corn fields or flying in at dusk with bugling calls..
