MarkHere's a short clip of Lesser Sandhill Cranes flying overhead from this past Thursday morning, after my time in a blind at Rowe Sanctuary. This large flock was on high alert after a Bald Eagle entered the scene (not shown in video). <a href="https://videos.trom.tf/w/oPZAWsHGUmKQWvhPWuJHiz" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://videos.trom.tf/w/oPZAWsHGUmKQWvhPWuJHiz</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/SandhillCranes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SandhillCranes</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Sandhill_Cranes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sandhill_Cranes</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#birding</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdwatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#birdwatching</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BirdPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BirdPhotography</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/RoweSanctuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RoweSanctuary</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Audubon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Audubon</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/isawabird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#isawabird</a>

Words by Xian Chiang-Waren Senior Associate Editor, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Audubon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Audubon</a> Magazine Published Winter 2021 "Twenty years ago, Tony Kuchma took charge of restoring the Oneida Nation's wetlands in northeastern Wisconsin. The land was marked by old mills and farm operations. The water was <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/polluted" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#polluted</a>. The fields were overrun with non-native plants. "Since then, Kuchma and his team have rehabilitated about 3,000 acres of the reservation. 'Large-scale <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/restoration" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#restoration</a> is an accumulation of years of effort,' he says. 'We’re looking at the land: Some wants to be prairie, some trees, some wetland. The land tells you what it wants to be again.'"Now streams flow where ditches stood, and there's a renewed <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#wildlife</a> presence. 'We’ve had eagles come back,' says Randy Cornelius, a cultural representative of the tribe.
