So, one might surmise, it’s OK if they get shot by hunters thinking they’re sandhill cranes? Over the winter, the universe lost four whooping cranes to what appears to be recreational shooting: three gunned down together in Georgia on December 30, 2010, and another in Alabama on January 28, 2011. Do all hunters realize that?

As 2012 draws to a close we here at 10,000 Birds thought that it would be a great idea if we, like we did in 2010 and 2011 , shared our Best Birds of the Year. Considering the bird survived a season in an area saturated with hunters and birds of prey, this facemelting rarity deserves our respect. What better way to start a birding day?
