Sandhill Crane Tours
View and listen to Sandhill Cranes, from Nebraska Game and Fish. Spring is the time when you can watch the mating dances of the Sandhill Cranes, and fall is when you can see them staging in large flocks in preparation for their journey south for the winter.
Listen to the guttural calls of these magnificent birds as they fly to the feeding fields, and feed in flocks of up to 300 strong.

Elk Bugling Tours
Rocky Mountain National Park Copyright Mike Brooks Outdoor PhotographyWe offer elk bugling and viewing tours to Custer State Park, SD; Rocky Mountain National Park CO; and Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, WY. The best time to listen to the bulls bugling, and see them in hard antler is from early September through the middle of October, during the elk breeding season, or "rut" as it is called.
T.R. Michels Outdoor Photography We also have access to a captive herd of over 700 elk, including over 100 bulls scoring between 280 and 450 inches of antler length and mass (such as the two below). You can listen to these bulls bugle, and view and photograph them from late August through early November. You can view and photograph the beautiful elk calves from June through September.

MN / WI Trumpeter & Tundra Swan and Bald Eagle Tours
Copyright Tawnya Michels Outdoor PhotographyListen to a Swan Call
The best time to see migrating tundra swans on the Mississippi River in southern Minnesota is usually in November, after the northern lakes and rivers freeze up. There are always some bald eagles around at this time too. The tundra swans will leave for the east coast when the back waters of the Mississippi River, or the Mississippi River itself, freezes over.
January through March is usually the best time for trumpeter swans north of Minneapolis/St. Paul, and for bald eagles south of Minneapolis/St. Paul.
Tawnya Michels Outdoor Photography We regularly see bald eagles throughout the year on our western Wisconsin and southern Minnesota tours. We have access to at least three sites where you may be able to view and photograph nesting bald eagles, including seeing the downy white chicks in the spring and summer.
We often visit the National Eagle Center and the Wildlife Science Center on our tours, where you can see captive eagles, hawks, owls, bears and fox, and see and listen to howling gray wolves.

Turkey Gobbling Tours
Listen to a Turkey gobble.Peak daily turkey gobbling is within an hour of sunrise, most gobbling occurs from late March through early June, with peaks during the first and second weeks of April and May. During the spring you will be able to locate turkeys by calling to them on their roosts in the morning, and hear them gobble in return to your calls. If you get up before sunrise you may get to watch them fly down from their roosts, and watch and listen to them as the toms display for the hens by spreading their tails, turning their heads red, white and blue, and hear them "spit" and "drum" while they are on the feeding and strutting areas. You can even learn to use a turkey call. View T.R. Michels' Turkey Research. View Trinity Mountain Outdoor Adventures North American Natural History Eco-Tour Schedule. Read articles on these tours.
