Winter 2007

This has been the longest migration trip since the project began. The birds are in Tennessee and the migration team is taking a much needed holiday break from December 17 through December 29. WCEP partner Operation Migration, Inc. has a daily journal of the migration and the International Crane Foundation has journal entries from their biologists who are tracking cranes from previous year's releases.
