Description
A family of Sandhill cranes foraging for breakfast.
Sandhill Cranes are the most common of the world's cranes. A fossil from ten million years ago was found to be structurally the same as the modern sandhill crane. Today, these large birds are found predominately in North America.
Migratory subspecies of sandhill cranes breed in the Northern U.S., Canada, Alaska, and Siberia. Each winter they undertake long southern journeys to wintering grounds in Florida, Texas, Utah, Mexico, and California. En route, more than three-fourths of all sandhill cranes use migratory staging areas in a single 75-mile stretch along Nebraska's Platte River.
Most sandhill cranes live in freshwater wetlands. They eat plants, grains, mice, snakes, insects, or worms. They often dig in the soil for tubers and can sometimes cause significant crop damage.
