Nebraska's Platte River and surrounding sandhills play host to an incredible migration spectacle each year as hundreds of thousands of Sandhill Cranes descend upon the river ahead of their flight to breeding grounds in Canada, Alaska, and even Siberia. Our Nebraska birding tours are timed perfectly to witness crane and Snow Geese migration.
