A Ray Of Hope For Florida's Most Treasured Bird

On the Gulf Coast of Florida in Homosassa Springs
right now, there are two doting parents tending to
eggs and if we are very, very fortunate, one or maybe
Whooping Crane
A Whooping Crane
even both of them are fertile.
These two Whooping Cranes are making history for the most Endangered Bird in this Country and if chicks are born, they will probably be sent off to become a part of one of the research programs based out of the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in Maryland.
Regardless of whatever happens right now, a pair of Florida Whooping Cranes is doing their best to save their own kind from disappearing, forever.
All that we need to do now, is to let them be themselves and stay out of their way.
