World’s largest Sandhill crane flock draws watchers to Nebraska
Tens of thousands of bird watchers visit south-central Nebraska each March to see more than 500000 Sandhill cranes along an 80 mile stretch of the Platte River. The birds, migratory stopovers from Mexico and southern states, fill sandbars by day and roost nearby at night as observers like Jim Rintoul marvel at their coordinated flights and calls.
