Heading north at noontime on I-94 at about highway marker 50, just before the
Oakdale exit, there were two whooping cranes just off the road to the right.
Viewed at 65 miles per hour from a distance of less than 200 feet along an
irrigation ditch. This is just before the the I-90 split to LaCrosse.
Traveling from Milwaukee I had seen deer, sandhills, turkeys and many nesting
Canada Geese. Yesterday I saw two Peregrines. I was marvelling at what an
amazing success story this all was. Then this topped the cake. Thanks to all
that have helped reestablish this species.
