| Resource Title: | Operation Migration
|
|---|
| Description: | Operation Migration, a nonprofit conservation organization dedicated to teaching safe migratory routes to endangered and threatened birds, was co-founded by William Lishman -- the pilot who pioneered the use of ultralight aircraft to lead birds in flight. Operation Migration is part of a consortium created to safeguard the endangered Whooping crane against extinction. Visitors to this Web site can track the progress of seven ultralight-led Whooping cranes now making their way from Wisconsin to Florida for the winter. The Web site provides daily field reports of the migration, a map charting the progress of the flock, loads of photos, crane biographies, video clips, and more. The site also relates the engaging story of how Operation Migration got started, one that should sound familiar to those who've seen the feature film Fly Away Home. |
