Follow the crane migration live with the ’Crane Radar’

Birdwatchers beware! The next few weeks are all about crane migration. When the wind is just right, sometimes thousands of "cranes" fly over the Netherlands. But even with those numbers, it is not easy to spot them. That is why Dr Koen de Koning, in collaboration with Sensing Clues, developed an app that works as a 'rainfall radar for cranes'. This makes spotting a lot easier. The Crane radar , as De Koning himself calls it, shows you at any time of the day where and when you could see cranes flying overhead. How convenient: that way you know exactly where to go to admire these graceful birds, or even see from your armchair when it is the right time to look up.
