Whooping Crane Family, IMG_1520.jpg

Family of two addults and their two fledglings. This family is unique in raising two chicks to maturity. In most familys, the dominant chick will kill its sibling. This pair has successfully raised two chicks year after year. The outstreatched necks indicated they were ready to fly.
