Whooper along Grand River Near Spring Lake

April 9 to Mich-Chat:

Birders,

A friend of mine* just informed me that there is a Whooping Crane roosting on Bruce's Bayou and feeding in the corn fields off of 129th Street just south of Leonard Rd. The bird was seen roosting in the marsh this morning, then moved out into the corn fields during the day. The marsh where it was roosting can either be seen from the end of 129th street or the end of 132nd street (both of these are south of Leonard Rd).*

Good Birding,

Jonathan Lautenbach
