Driving west from Lincoln to Grand Island, Nebraska, Paul A. Johnsgard remarks, is like driving backward in time. "I suspect," he says, "that the migrating cranes of a pre-ice age period some ten million years ago would fully understand every nuance of the crane conversation going on today along the Platte."
Johnsgard has spent nearly a half century observing cranes, from a yearly foray to Nebraska's Platte River valley to see the spring migration, to pilgrimages to the birds' wintering grounds in Arizona and nesting territory in Alaska. In this book he draws from his own extensive experience as well as the latest science to offer a richly detailed and deeply felt account of the ecology of sandhill and whooping cranes and the wetlands in which they live.
Incorporating current information on changing migration patterns, population trends, and breeding ranges, Johnsgard explains the life cycle of the crane, as well as the significance of these species to our natural world. He also writes frankly of the uncertain future of these majestic birds, as cranes and their habitats face the effects of climate change and increasing human population pressures. Illustrated with the author's own ink drawings and containing a detailed guide to crane-viewing sites in the United States and Canada, this book is at once an invaluable reference and an eloquent testimony to how much these birds truly mean.

Good value, fit 2023 CRV 1.5L
These filters arrived wrapped in plastic in a cardboard box, shipped in a standard Amazon box. Initial quality seems very good. I've previously used store brand filters and oem filters in our 2023 CRV 1.5L, and these look comparable. They fit fine. If you have not changed your filters, there are good youtube videos that show how to do it, the CRV is well supported and pretty straightforward without having to buy a bunch of special tools. If you don't want to spend $100 at the dealership, these are a good value and only take about 5-10 minutes total to change once you have done it a few times. First time out, give yourself 30 minutes and be patient!

Fits Perfectly. Can't beat the price. Don't Hesitate....
Actually this filter combo fits my customers car perfect. Some after market filters you have to finagle a little to make them fit, however this engine air filter and cabin filter fit perfect...Great deal for both filters.
