More adventures in casual birdwatching in Door County, Wisconsin:
At one point last week, I saw a Common Merganser, carrying its young on its back like sailors on a deck as it floated across Green Bay. I could not get a good photo.
However, on Monday, on the way to see Door Shakespeare's latest production of Much Ado About Nothing, I saw two sandhill cranes:
Shortly after, I discovered that one of the two breeding grounds for the Whooping Crane is in Wisconsin. That said, it seems the breeding grounds are more inland than Door County.
Also, in addition, one of my longest-standing traditions in Door County is a yearly trip to THE Farm. Here, there was an area with ducks and geese, and the ducks seemed to be really preoccupied with preening, and given how into it they were, I fully expected to see some feathers come off:
Eventually, I found a feather near the enclosure that I'm fairly certain comes from one of the geese; if it was, it wouldn't be in violation of the Migratory Birds Act of 1918 if I took it and put it in my cap. So I did.
And now for some #HailTritanopia pics.
