I haven't seen many but haven't been out much the past couple weeks. I did see some flying a couple weeks ago, along with some snipe in the air. Yesterday we...
... Several sightings for me. Early in the season I heard a couple of them talking on Cranberry Dike road on the south side, near a clump of trees, before you...
It is nice to see the Phantom Lake area getting a little bit more water in it from the recent rains. I drove by late this afternoon and was surprised to see...
Yes, these rains are doing us a world of good. It appears that the wild rice beds will be accessible by canoe on Phantom Lake. They should be begin harvesting...
Wandering the meadows yesterday, I ran into a first for me. I've seen lots of adult prints around the meadows but this time was special. A sandy spot running...

We have been having a great fall. The cranes are here and will be here for several more weeks. The BEST time to see them in the Wildlife Area is at sunrise...
Hey all, Keep up the great work at making Crex Meadows what it is. I have never been to Crex Meadows but plan on visiting real soon. I just spent a lot of...

Hi Everyone, I'm new to this group. I've been going to Crex for many years. I used to take my kids and now I take my granddaughters. We went last Friday and it...
There are a few options. First, we have a rest area that we allow camping at in the fall. You would want to stop by the visitor center and register - there's...
Made it on scene at sunrise again this year. What an awsome sight to see all the flocks of Sand Hill's taking flight. So good to have the water levels up...
Hello, First time poster here. I try and make a few treks to Crex every fall. This year there were some beautiful sunrises when the cranes took flight. The...
It was such a beautiful warm fall day that I decided to forget about getting my windows washed and take another trip to Crex. I had only planned on going to...
I've been remiss in participating from this message board, but I'd like to invite you all to visit my photo gallery at www.10photography.com. Click on the...
From what I was told, they did not band swans this year because of a re-routing of funding to the wolf reimbursement project. Not sure of the validity of that...
11/7 shows the Sandhill cranes starting to move out. For those that want to see them they still outnumber the geese by a lot. For those that can not make it...
It's been 3 weeks since I went to Crex. I went 3 days in a row to get as much viewing in as I could before deer hunting season began. I found my otter family...
I went through Crex today and didn't see much. Just tracks all over in the snow. The reason I'm posting this is because I came across this fantastic slide show...
... Hello everyone I emailed the DNR contact and just received a response to my questions about the Crex Swan Banding database. I gave two example swans in my...
... regular email address klupo@... I can't do it right now but will do it later. I knew Pat Manthey years ago and used to report swan sightings to her quite...
If the Swan database is public or we can get permission it would be a great thing to have in the files section of this list. If we can have people developing a...
... Pat said there isnt a public database or a way for her to just send me the data on all the swans in wisconsin that were tagged. Its very possible that any...
Since we are talking about Swans and we have plenty of room in the files section right now. I posted a 5 min ambience recording of some very happy Trumpeter...
Thanks for posting those! They are awesome. We had a TON of the ranes here by our house and they were awesome and quite loud! =) Thanks again! Raine Rich Peet...
With the turn to warmer weather and the nice fog last night both the Barred Owls and the Great Horned Owls are in peak mating season calls. There is also a...
Thanks for the post. I am fairly certain that the owl is a barred - has the same tonal quality as their usual who-cooks-for-you. I recall last spring while...
