NEWS RELEASE: MAY 6, 2013
DOS CABEZAS SPIRIT AND NATURE RETREAT B & B
WATCH FOR WILLCOX SANDHILL CRANES ON THE DISCOVERY CHANNEL
About a year and half ago The Discovery Channel film crew, who had filmed much of PLANET EARTH, stayed at Dos Cabezas Spirit and Nature Retreat B & B for two weeks to film the Sandhill Cranes for an epic, new series, NORTH AMERICA.
The world premier is Sunday, May 19th, 2013 on The Discovery Channel. You can view a trailer by scrolling down below, and also on the Dos Cabezas B & B website at www.doscabezasretreat.com. This new series is being hailed as epic and jaw-dropping.
When you view the trailer, you'll see the Sandhill Cranes about 3/4 of the way the trailer, a couple of frames after the dolphins, with a great shot of the Dos Cabezas mountains in the background and an overlay of the words "Five Years In The Making." Working with Homer Hansen, Director of Wings Over Willcox and Tom Whetten, a local photographer, and the Arizona Game and Fish, The Discovery Channel filmed at the Willcox Cochise Twin Lakes, at AZ Game and Fish's "Crane Lake" Wildlife Area off of Kansas Settlement Road a few miles south of Willcox, and at Whitewater Draw.
"They set up blinds and would leave our place around 3:00 a.m.," said Jon Samuelson, owner of Dos Cabezas B & B, "and they would film all day long, coming back in around seven or eight at night." Samuelson said it was exciting to have them and their incredible array of camera equipement at the B & B, and to watch how they worked. "For two weeks they would film for twelve hours a day, and at the end of each day they would comment they might have ended up with a couple of minutes of usuable footage that day." They told the Samuelsons that for this kind of film, the footage "had to be the best in the world."
An article in The Huffington Post reads, "From snow-capped mountains to arid deserts, and all the lush forests in between, Discovery Channel has a gorgeous new series that zooms in on some of the most exotic nature in the world--and it's all in our own backyard. The footage is absolutely breathtaking."
We hope our area Sandhill Cranes made the final cut. The production is a 7-part series and airs on Sunday nights beginning May 19th, 2013 on The Discovery Channel. Scroll down to click the trailer.
