Your Whooping Crane Photo Trip

So, you haven’t photographed the whooping cranes yet?  Make this the winter you let go and join me aboard Kevin Sim’s boat at Fulton/Rockport, Texas.  We will work our way around the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge shoreline and, with any luck, you will have several opportunities to photograph a variety of birds and other wildlife.  Common sightings include the endangered whooping crane, osprey, roseate spoonbill, American oystercatcher, brown and white pelican, ducks and more.
