EDITORS COMMENTS
Feathered Fiesta: Sandhill Cranes Rock the Platte River Party!". In this photo print, Tom and Pat Leeson have captured a breathtaking moment along the Platte River in Nebraska during the spring migration. As dawn breaks, thousands of sandhill cranes gather along the riverbanks, creating a spectacle that can only be described as a feathered fiesta! The image showcases these elegant birds roosting in perfect harmony, their long necks gracefully arched against the backdrop of tranquil waters. With their striking red crowns and charcoal gray plumage, they stand out like stars on nature's red carpet. This mass gathering is not just about socializing; it's also an important stopover for these migratory marvels. The Platte River Valley provides them with vital wetland habitats to rest and refuel before continuing their journey northwards. As we gaze at this awe-inspiring scene from above, we can't help but imagine what conversations might be taking place among these avian partygoers. Are they sharing travel tales or discussing fashion trends? Whatever it may be, one thing is for sure – this is one happening hangout spot for our fine-feathered friends! So let your imagination take flight as you bring home this stunning print by Tom and Pat Leeson. It's a snapshot of pure joy and natural wonder that will transport you to the heart of this vibrant wildlife celebration along the Platte River.
