Meet #602! What do you see?

Laurie is using a puppet to show new chick #602 how to eat.
• The puppet looks like an adult whooping crane so the chick will know its species.
• The food bowl is red because chicks are attracted to red.
• Laurie wears a baggy white costume to hide her human form.

This chick will be part of the group of chicks that ultralight planes will lead on a 1200-mile migration to Florida in about five months!



Journey North is pleased to feature this educational adventure made possible by the
Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership (WCEP).
