The staff at Crex Meadows Wildlife Area conducted a count of sandhill cranes at 
Crex and Fish Lake Wildlife Areas today.  There were 12,201 birds counted.  
There are other birds using the area as well at this time that were not 
counted.  Normally the number of cranes staging in this area increases through 
October into early November.  The best viewing areas are on Main Dike Road on 
the south side of the Crex refuge.  On Fish Lake Wildlife Area the Grettum 
Flowage over look off Hwy 87 south of Grantsburg offers a good view as well as 
the south side of the Grettum Flowage refuge off Grettum Dike Road.
