Arggh!

I just got a report that a Whooping Crane was observed at Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge ONE DAY AFTER I WAS THERE.
I kept checking the flocks of Sandhill Cranes I saw looking for the large white one but it was never there. My friend Doug Smith observed the bird, a single unbanded adult on Monday morning on his way to work and reported it to the refuge.
I guess I will have to head that direction again this fall to look for Smith's Longspurs and Whooping Cranes on their way back south.
