St. Marks, Florida. Endangered whooping cranes are taught by Operation Migration to follow an ultralight from Wisconsin to Florida in an effort to re-establish a migration route.

You got a fine photo of these wonderful birds. A few whooping cranes spend the winter at Wheeler NWR in northwest Alabama. One year they refused to follow the ultralight further south and now return to Wheeler every winter.
