Cranes feed in fields where there is leftover corn, putting on about 30% of their weight here. At dusk they "stage" - that is, they move in to a field adjacent to the river, and then move on to a sandbar. From there they wade into the water for protection from predators.
At sunrise anywhere from a few to thousands of cranes take flight from the river back out into the fields to feed.

I uploaded a bunch of photos for my family to quickly look at, and since they were chronological and not too bad, I decided to keep them. So here you go - unedited - from the beginning. Just keep in mind, I am often unbalanced by -.85 degrees. :)
Friday Paul and I drove to central Nebraska for the annual Sandhill Crane migration. Some 300,000 Sandhill cranes come through this part of the state on their way from southern Texas, as well as other southern parts, on their way to their nesting grounds up north as far as Alaska and even Siberia. They occupy approximately 80 miles of the central Platte River.
This volume examines the phenomenon of mass population migration from the Caribbean to North America and the United Kingdom and the social, cultural, and economic adaptation of the immigrants to their new environments. A central theme of this volume is that twentieth century Caribbean migration is more than the migration of labor in search of jobs; it is also a movement of households and thus affects not only the well-being of family members but also their social relationships. The contributors provide new analytical perspectives on the factors that motivate this movement, and the social, cultural,and economic impact of the movement on the household itself. The volume is divided into three parts. Part I examines the historical movement to the United States and the United Kingdom. The chapters in this section explore the relationship between the character of Caribbean development and the factors motivating the migration of households, the nineteenth century beginnings of twentieth century mass Caribbean migration, and the social and economic experiences of the post-World War II Caribbean immigrants in Britain. Part II looks at the problems of settlement and adaptation in the major urban centers where Caribbean immigrants have tended to concentrate, giving special attention to the status of Caribbean women in the United States and the role of social networks in helping immigrants to adapt to their new surroundings. The final section looks at the problem of illegal migration from the Caribbean to the United States, drawing on data from the annual reports of the Immigration and Naturalization Service. Students, researchers, and policy-makers will find In Search of a Better Life an important contribution to the understanding of the total migration process.

Migratory geese seen at Kavdi. Humble request: Please keep distance from them. I appeal all P@P members not to exploit their nesting grounds for the sake of our photography. Kavdi is an habitat and together lets protect it.
