I have a credible report of seven Whooping Cranes seen 9 April in
Polk County, Minnesota. These birds are presumed to be from the wild
Texas flock, having been seen near the Platte River in Nebraska on 28
March, and Mantador, North Dakota on 5 April. Mantador is about 15
miles west of Wilkin County, Minnesota.
The cranes, five adults and two juveniles, were documented by Ross
Hier, a MN DNR biologist, as they flew over his prairie-chicken blind
in section 36 of Polk County, 12 miles southeast of Crookston. Both
the DNR and USF&W are treating this as a confirmed sighting. Thanks
to Bob Russell for passing this information on to me.
