Whooping Crane nesting season is off to a great start!
Despite rainy & cold weather, 16 pairs of Whooping Cranes are now
incubating eggs, and more will likely follow. The previous high was 12
nesting pairs.
Researchers are investigating the effect of black flies on the nesting
Whooping Cranes, but all ultra-light training and release of Direct
Autumn Release chicks will take place in east-central Wisconsin starting
this year.
