Celebrating Earth Day with Sandhill Cranes

 


Drove through Nebraska last week and caught some of the Sandhill migration. I think I was past the peak migration time but there were still thousands and thousands, perhaps millions of Sandhill Cranes all over the place in central Nebraska in a 50 mile stretch near the Snake River. They overnight, rest up for several days and head on north to Canada to breed. Clean air, clean water and a safe resting place is what these birds need and that has been helped by programs inspired by things like Earth Day. So, Happy Earth Day to all. Hope you all get good weather to get out and enjoy some of the day.
