In the past 2 days I have seen a total of 30 Whooping Cranes from my office window on Clark rd.

The birds have all been following along hwy 52 in Inver Grove Heights, MN

Yesterday 4/9 at about 4:30pm I saw the first group of eight.

Today 4/10 at 10:37am I viewed a group of 24 taking the exact path as the first eight. they circled my building for 3-4 minutes, not finding any thermals today like yesterdays flight weather getting nasty, they headed slightly west from here toward Eagan in thedirection of Cliff Rd. from the Koch Refinery.

Keep an eye out for the other 236

They are beautiful to watch...I heard classical music in my head

Regards,

Ted
