ARGH!!
Sorry, but today
is no different from the past six. It's too windy. And the team
was clearing snow off the wings in the middle
of the night! Seven
days in one stopover
site ties a record with
the
2004
migration.
Will
a new record be set, or will it remain tied? We'll
see tomorrow.

Today's
Journal Questions: What did Laurie notice about crane
#608 this week? In what ways might the birds
be affected by such a long
time in the travel pen?
-
Record
Keeping: Where was the team downed for seven days in
the 2004 migration? In
what other states did they have long delays?
