Sandhill Crane

These beautiful creatures are not only incredibly majestic but are also very ancient, as they are among the oldest living birds in the world. Sandhill Cranes (Grus canadensis) in particular have the earliest known fossil record of any extant bird on Earth. In the 1920’s, a 10 million year old crane fossil (late Miocene-era), believed to be a direct Sandhill Crane ancestor was discovered in Nebraska. And in Florida, the earliest modern Sandhill Crane fossil belonging to the Grus genus was found to be 2.5 million years old!
