Résumé :	After the extinction of Crane as a breeding bird in Denmark around 1850, the species started to return in 1952 and recolonized Northern Jutland. Between 1958 and the late 1980s, 3-4 breeding pairs occurred at three different sites. Thereafter, the population grew steadily and more breeding pairs were observed in Northern Jutland and on the island of Laso (1993), on Bornholm (1990) and in central Jutland (1997). Today (1999), the Danish crane population consists of at least 14-15 breeding pairs. We report about the breeding habitats, the breeding success and numbers of non-breeding cranes.
