Into Whooperland: A Photographer’s Journey With Whooping Cranes

Into Whooperland: A Photographer’s Journey With Whooping Cranes

An Evening With Michael Forsberg

CURRENTLY SOLD OUT.

Over five years, photographer and author Mike Forsberg immersed himself in the world of whooping cranes – a universe of another kind, and yet reliant on human care.  He followed the last wild population, numbering some 540 birds, on their narrow, 2,500 mile Great Plains flyway from the Texas Gulf Coast to nesting grounds in remote boreal forests of Canada’s Northwest Territories.  From inside the whooper portal, Mike shares the birds’ saga in his remarkable new book.
