Goose Island Park’s BIG BIRD…..Whooping Cranes

Those big birdies are the claim to fame for this park. This is a migration destination and they claim over 250 pair are here. Unfortunately for all the gawkers, it’s a hugh park and much of if marsh and unreachable. We got some hints on where to look and saw three of them this morning. Pretty cool to see and to realize that they are recovering from only 15 pair in the world. We seem to have gotten something right.
