"It is amazing to me that the migration urge is so strong that an injured bird is undergoing all the rigors of migration," said Biologist Tom Stehn when he heard about these cranes. Why is "the LaCreek pair" a good name for them? "I have no idea which pair they are at Aransas NWR," said Tom. "We can't even say for sure they are a breeding pair, but the fact that they are migrating as a duo, and that limited dancing was observed, makes me think they are a breeding pair."
