Spring Migration Part 2

Our last posting in early April on the Siberian Crane spring migration followed the migrating cranes to Liaoning Province in eastern China (see Spring Migration). By the end of April, over 1,000 Siberian Cranes were observed at Momoge Nature Reserve in Jilin Province. The wetlands in Momoge and surrounding reserves in Northeast China provide safe places for the cranes to rest and feed as they continue their migration north. Next stop - Siberia!
