Dave, Elizabeth and I were in Nebraska yesterday, watching migrating Sandhill cranes, Grus canadensis, over the Platte River in the evening. This is one of the images that Dave took of the sunset that we saw while we were there. (I also have a bunch of images of the Platte River and its Sandhill cranes to share with you).

This from Julie at 10,000 Birds:
I have a new post up at 10,000 Birds: How much bird is there, anyway? Please have a look and leave a comment!
Oh wow.
This is stunning! came over from your reddit plug. :D
*sigh*
I dream of getting shots like that! It takes a certain amount of luck...
I grew up near the Platte River. My Dad would take me every year to see the cranes. Thank you for bringing back some very fond memories.
