EVENT CANCELLED
With the potential for a significant severe weather outbreak this weekend, the final Whooping Crane Walk of the season that was scheduled for Saturday, March 15 at 11:00 AM has been cancelled. An announcement about the operating status of the Visitor Center will be made on the homepage of the refuge's website.
Join us for a morning bird walk at Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge in Decatur, Alabama! We will meet at the outdoor classroom in the Visitor Center parking lot at 11am to walk around the property and enjoy spotting some of our resident winter birds, including Sandhill Cranes and, if we are lucky, Endangered Whooping Cranes. Olivia Burkholz from the International Crane Foundation will lead the bird walks, and anyone is welcome to join this free event – registration is not required.
