The storms in Florida were not kind to the
Migrating Class of 2006. 18 Endangered Whooping Cranes -essentially the whole flock- died in the recent storms. (

We had been following the Operation Migration Field Journals last fall as the Cranes made their way safely to Florida without losing a single bird.
Of course our thoughts and prayers are with all the people who are dealing with the destruction of the storms in Florida. This piece of news just struck my heart because we followed those birds on their migration last year.
