@dnasbirdingadventures takes a 3 week trip to Michigan for a wedding. We’ll take out time exploring and finding birds, camping, #birdingwatching #roadtrip with our #vanagon #vanlife , Annie Van. We’ll head through Nebraska, Iowa, Wisconsin & Michigan. We high tailed it out of the BLACK FLY country where we got eaten alive! We’ll have to return to some places we missed.
This is our final video from our three week trip with Annie Van finding new roads, birds, and what beautiful country! This video highlights Necedah National Wildlife Refuge to look for the Whooping Cranes! Do we find one???

Such a beautiful place to go birding! ✨
It really is! There were tons of mosquitos though. Thanks for commenting.
Nice video. Thanks for sharing & big like
Big thanks!!
Thanks for sharing. My favorite photos are the Piping Plover and the Virginia Rail, because they are nice photos and the birds are rarely seen. I was amazed to see the Herring Gull eating a sea lamprey - makes me wonder if the lamprey could attach to the stomach of the gull, and eat it from the inside out! The only Whooping Crane I have seen was in the farm lands in western Lenawee County Michigan back in June 2016. It seemed to be paired with a Sandhill Crane. They returned in the area in spring for a number of years.
@@ASadler-ug1nm Thanks, I love the Piping Plover pic hiding behind the grass the best. He has a few others too on the Whitefish Point video. I, too, thought the same about the Lamprey. The sea gull seemed to make sure it was dead before engulfing it whole by knocking it against the rock SEVERAL times. We were only that close to a rail a few times, the Clapper Rail in FL and the Virginia Rail at Lon Hagler. This Rail had a hurt toe, so we let him/her walk all the way down the boardwalk to stay out of its way. That’s interesting about the Whooping Crane hanging out with the Sandhill Crane. I believe they migrate about the same time anyway. Thanks again for watching.
Gulls will eat anything they can fit into their gullet hehe! I've never been to that part of the States. Lots of good birding, indeed. Whooping cranes are definitely on my bucket list -- sooo rare. Can't believe we almost lost them to extinction. Thanks for sharing. :)
@@LauraGYoung You’re welcome and thanks for watching. If we didn’t see them on this trip, we were definitely going to head to Corpus Christi area where they winter to see them. Wood Buffalo National Park Canada is another great spot to see them nesting. LOL, we’re realizing more and more how birds will eat anything. We love playing the game, Wingspan too which shows what birds will eat. It’s so fun. Happy birding and travels.
@@dnasbirdingadventures Wingspan is the bestest! :) :)
