Just a heads up for those who regularly observe Sandhill Cranes in Wisconsin...
There was a Hooded Crane hanging out with Sandhill Cranes in southeastern
Tennessee in December and January. Apparently it was last seen in Tennessee on
January 30, and there was a report of a possible Hooded Crane in far southern
Indiana on February 1.
Today there was a confirmed sighting of a Hooded Crane in the Goose Pond Fish
and Wildlife Area in southwestern Indiana. The bird arrived with a flock of
Sandhills.
Judging from the direction this bird is going, it's possible that it might hit
Wisconsin at some point, in the company of Sandhills...
