Event Calendar

In recent years, the gathering of Sandhill Cranes around Schoolcraft has become quite a spectacle, fueled by grain crops in the farm fields and desirable roosting areas. Watch and listen to them as they gather to roost around sunset. Courtship displays are common, and the calling of thousands of cranes can be breathtaking. No hiking will be required – we will bird from our vehicles. Meet at the Park ‘n Ride lot on Angling Road off of Centre Avenue, next to highway US-131, to caravan to the location. If you like, join us afterward at Latitude 42 Brewing Company, 7842 Portage Road, Portage, for refreshments.

Leaders: Susan Creager (269) 716-7988 and Kent Martin (256) 751-3358
