I read in today's Duluth News-Tribune newspaper that Joan Galli and =
other biologists saw a female Whooping Crane at Carlos Avery for two =
days. The crane is part of the experimental flock from Wisconsin and =
has return back to Wisconsin. The crane is tagged and they can follow =
her movements. I have no idea what two days in May the crane was =
observed at Carlos Avery but they mentioned in the article that the last =
time a Whooping Crane was seen in Minnesota was hundred or so years ago. =
I know that was wrong because the last sighting I know of in Minnesota =
is a sighting near Crookston in the late 80's where many birders saw the =
Whooping Crane.
Anyway its to bad the bird never made it to the listserves or the RBA's. =
Since this bird is a banded and part of a experimental flock I wonder =
if its even countable for ones life list or state list? =20
