Howdy y'all, The manager of Brazoria NWR, Cody Dingee, refound the Whooping Crane along CR 227 in Brazoria County today. It was out in a rice field on the west side of CR 227 about 1/2 mile south of FM 2004 with a huge flock of Sandhill Cranes. The bird is banded and Jennifer Wilson, FWS biologist got a bunch of photos so hopefully we can determine which individual this bird is. As far as I could tell it has been there all day but I just found about it around 2:00. It was still there at 3:00 when I left. Sue Susan A.
