Each fall, tens of thousands of sandhill cranes overwinter in the Central Valley. The magnificent birds, standing 5 feet tall, are a threatened species in California. Docent-led tours to see and learn about them are held Sundays and the second Thursdays and Saturdays of each month (except holidays), starting Sept. 24 and continuing through Feb. 15.
