Whooping Crane Arrival in Texas

Greetings! As we move from October toward November, Whooping Cranes are making their way from northern breeding grounds through Texas to the Gulf Coast. Keep you eyes open near wetlands, plowed fields and even pastures in a broad swath from the Panhandle through Williamson County to the coast. If you see these magnificent birds, try to get a photo and submit to this project so we can continue to expand our knowledge of the use of Texas by this endangered species. Thanks!

Will do. Just curious what the current population number is.

I've not yet seen any, but I work outdoors, and I heard their calls November 2 and 3 from my location on Clear Lake in Seabrook, TX. They were flying so high and fast I never spotted them, but there's no mistaking that call.
