I don't know if they would be likely to
roost in trees in the woods or not.
Have to do a little research, I suspose.
While I was the Refuge Manager at Bitter Lake NWR in southeast New Mexico I
observed many thousands of wintering sandhill cranes both there and at Muleshoe
NWR in the Texas Panhandle. They always roost in shallow water. I assume
they would do the same here in the east.
