Sandhill Crane

Each spring, more than 500,000 sandhill cranes gather in the Platte River valley during their northward migration. Sandhill cranes have been making this migration annually for thousands of years, and fossil beds in several parts of Nebraska contain the remains of prehistoric cranes from 10 million years ago.
