My favorite sighting was a trio of Sandhill Cranes along I-71 in Ohio, but since that didn’t occur on the weekend, I’ll go with fetching Fox Sparrows at our cousin’s Kentucky farm. Driving from Rochester, NY to Georgetown, KY this Thanksgiving weekend afforded me lots of looks at big birds like raptors.
