Sunset over the Platte - Rowe Sanctuary Blind, Nebraska - 3.15.2010

It was cloudy the entire time we were in Kearney for the Sandhill Crane Migration this year. However, as we stood in the blind at the Rowe Sanctuary waiting for the Cranes to land in the Platte, there was a little bit of clear sky at the horizon. As the sun set, we caught a glimpse of it. I can only imagine how red the river would have looked with a fully-visible sunset. This was just an added bonus to a great Crane-viewing experience. This is the original RAW photo.
