On Monday evening at dusk my neighbor found 12 to 15 Whooping Cranes amoung
the thousands of Sand Hill Cranes at Crex Meadows near Grantsburg
Wisconsin. the cranes were flying in for the evening after presumedly
feeding in the surrounding fields. The Whooping Cranes easily stood out
amoung the
7:40am, Friday, October 28.
My husband just called to tell me that he saw a Snowy Owl perched on a
median lamp post on the 'Duluth-most' third of the Bong Bridge between Duluth,
MN and Superior, WI.
