Elegant, majestic and talkative - thousands of Sandhill Cranes spend time on Sauvie Island each winter. Transportation is provided for this outing to view wild cranes feeding, flying and being cranes - what's that all about? Chances of seeing Bald Eagles and other raptors are also very good. We depart from the Hillsboro Civic Center Plaza, 150 E Main Street, where you can arrive by MAX, bus or park your vehicle in the nearby free parking garage. This trip is limited to 7 participants so don't wait to register!
