Sandhill Cranes & 1954 Fargo

 From Alex Emond: "Just upstream from Val Marie, Saskatchewan the Frenchman River has been dammed to create a reservoir called Lake Newton. There is a huge common pasture around that lake ... nothing's been plowed. This is one area where the deer and the antelope play. Always good for birds. Those are Sandhill Cranes in the last shot. Way up high, with a plaintive , melodic cry...there were hundreds on the wing that mid-October morning.
          "The Fargo has become part of the landscape. Note the way they made the open flaps in the hood to help with overheating."---AE
