About the event

Whooping Crane Walk

Join us for an hour-long walk around the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center. You will enjoy spotting some of our resident winter birds, including Sandhill Cranes and, if we are lucky, endangered Whooping Cranes! The walk will end in the Observation Building.

No reservations are required! Meet at the Outdoor Classroom near the Visitor Center parking lot. Bring binoculars and dress for the weather.

This program is provided by the International Crane Foundation (savingcranes.org) in partnership with the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge.
