Whooping Crane -- Images from the Wild,
by Klaus Nigge

On the flock’s wintering grounds at Aransas National Wildlife Refuge in Texas, photographer Klaus Nigge has captured the daily activity of a single family over several weeks in two separate years, documenting their life in the salt marshes of the central Texas coast and, in one year, the happy arrival from the north of twin adolescents, itself an unusual event.

Then, with the backing of National Geographic magazine, he received unprecedented permission from the Canadian government to photograph the cranes’ summer nesting sites in remote areas of Wood Buffalo National Park. To obtain these unique photographs, he sat in a cleverly constructed blind for six days and nights, watching as a chick hatched and the adults cared for their young. There he witnessed both the peace and the perils of the cranes’ summer haven.

Features 156 color photos taken at Wood Buffalo National Park, where the only naturally occurring migratory population summers, and at the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge where they spend the winter.

Chasing the Ghost Birds
Saving Swans and Cranes from Extinction

By David Sakrison

You might think that a book about bird conservation would be dull and boring. This one is not.

Chasing the Ghost Birds is filled with interesting characters and exciting adventures. It tells the Whoopers' story from the first federal protection of the species, through struggles to breed the birds in captivity, unsuccessful efforts at cross-fostering, and early migration experiments in Idaho and New Mexico, up to the ongoing Wisconsin-to-Florida ultralight-led migrations.

The book traces the trumpeter swans' return, from cross fostering and hand-raising, to successful reintroduction in the Midwest Flyway. And it recounts the 30-year international struggle to save the elusive and endangered Siberian cranes.

This 283-page paperback includes illustrations, maps, black & white and color photographs. If your interests include birds, wildlife, conservation, wilderness travel, or outdoor adventures, Chasing the Ghost Birds is a great choice for a great read.

Format: Paperback: 8.5 x 5.5"

CRANES - A Natural History of a Bird in Crisis

Long in neck, leg and wing, cranes are imposing creatures that are among the largest and tallest of the world's bird species. They choose life-long mates and are devoted parents, raising their young with tenderness and determination.

Dr. Janice Hughes traces the history of these fascinating birds, from their early origins in the Mesozoic Era to the present day.

As a study of the environmental and human pressures that threaten all members of the species, this book unravels the fascinating story of the near-extinction of the whooping crane and its slow climb back from the edge of extinction through the tireless efforts of many dedicated researchers and volunteers

Format: 8.5 x 11"
