I'm glad you enjoyed the cranes. Come back to Nebraska later in the spring and see the Greater Prairie Chickens and the Sharp-tailed Grouse do their dawn mating dance on their leks!
There is something very soothing about watching animals' courtship displays and migrations. The same event happens like clockwork, year after year after year, going back who knows how far, and it has nothing to do with us. It keeps me grounded.

I've just watched a few youtube videos of these birds. How very fun. Thanks for telling me about them.

You're welcome!

I find the timelessness of nature's cycle profoundly soothing too.
