Description
One of the most beautiful natural phenomena in the United States is the annual congregation of the sandhill cranes. For about a month each March, over 500,000 sandhill cranes converge on the Platte River basin in Nebraska to rest and eat before they finish their migration to their northern breeding grounds. The cranes eat corn from the grain fields and then sleep on the sandbars. Time on the Platte River also gives single sandhill cranes the chance to find mates. If you are interested in birdwatching, a trip to the Platte River to see the sandhill cranes is a once in a lifetime experience.
