The following is a forward message from Georgia Bird list.
Let's go birding.....

FORWARD-------------------------------------
All 8 of the juvenile Whooping Cranes (Ultracranes) are resting comfortably
in a remote area in
southwest Ohio. Even the one that struck the power line when flushed from
the river, appears to be
no worse for the wear.
Richard Urbanek, the US Fish & Wildlife officer tracking them, reported that
they are safe and well
away from the public.
Maybe the young birds got "educated" and are going to be a little more
discriminating when picking
their stop-over sites.
I want to thank Janna & Kelly Sanders of Franklin, NC, for their hospitality
and all their efforts
in trying to keep people from bothering the cranes. They have the honor of
being the first to see a
Whooping Crane on North Carolina soil in more than 100 years!
