We drove to the Whitewater Draw Wildlife Area to see the hundreds of Sandhill Cranes (similar in size to the Great Blue Heron). They leave here in several weeks and migrate to upper Canada for the summer. We were about 200 to 300 yards away from them. At several viewing platforms, scopes were provided to see the cranes. Also saw several variety of ducks, a hawk, and on the way out of the area we saw a large jack rabbit.
To get there we passed through Tombstone. We did not stay long, gunslingers were in town and we had to vamoose.
We also saw our first Roadrunner cross the road in front of us - beep beep.
