Whooping Crane

No Go: Tomorrow Looks Good (+0 Miles) December 16, 2011: Migration Day 69 What happens next? Image: Richter Family Rain drenches the cranes and planes in camp today, but that will soon change. Tomorrow looks good for a flight! Remember how lucky they were last weekend, completing four fly-days in a row? The weather forecast looks good for another flying weekend! Today's slideshow introduces a boy who is waiting for the cranes to arrive in Georgia. (Map|Data) In the Classroom: Journal or Discussion (a) How did Taylor, the boy in today's photo/slideshow, get so lucky as to fly with Joe in the ultralight? Read his story and tell your favorite part. What did you learn that you didn't know before? (b-for-bonus): Read the data table to figure out how far to next stopover. Describe how latitude and longitude numbers change during the migration.
