### Chemical sprays may well be already trimming numbers

To the Expositor:

To say the Sandhills cranes are eating all the crops is not true; the crops have been taken off and they are. Eating the leftovers, Sandhill cranes have a route that Mother Nature has been overseeing for years , Man UNKIND, as I call us, are not seeing half as many as we use to, I think because of the chemical sprays we use. 

I think it is a very sad situation to have a cull on them; very disappointing.
