Sandhill Crane dancing |
Spent today driving around central Nebraska looking for cranes and other birds. We ended up seeing thousands of cranes and going to Nebraska Nature and Visitor Center. Here we saw Dr Paul Johnsgard speak - he has written books about the Platte, Nebraska birds and Cranes. This guy would be an awesome Ornithology professor. We ended our day standing on a bridge watching the cranes land in the river and another nice sunset. Another lovely day. If I lived here, I would be out every night watching the birds - you can never get too many cranes!
