Join us for a morning bird walk at Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge in Decatur, Alabama! We will meet at the outdoor classroom in the Visitor Center parking lot at 11 a.m. to walk around the property and enjoy spotting some of our resident winter birds, including Sandhill Cranes and, if we are lucky, Endangered Whooping Cranes.
The Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge’s annual Festival of the Cranes in Decatur, Alabama, has been rescheduled for Saturday, Jan. 18. Stop by our exhibit to learn about our Whooping Crane conservation programs!
In partnership with the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge, we’re excited to invite you to a community litter cleanup event for our wintering Whooping Cranes and Sandhill Cranes on Jan. 19, from 8 to 10 a.m. Together, we will remove trash that has made its way into crane habitats to help keep our wetlands safe for cranes and other waterbirds.
