At the risk of sounding like a defender of KDFWR ... 

as stated several times on BIRDKY previously, the reason why no one (including 
KDFWR I'm sure) *typically* reports sightings of Whooping Cranes, is that the 
International Crane Foundation (the entity most invested in the project to put 
them into the eastern Sandhill population) has specifically asked that 
locations *not* be given out publicly ... this to protect the Whoopers from 
undue disturbance.
