Jedna od najvećih svjetskih migracija zastane svakog marta na jednom skromnom mjestu, na ravnici američke države Nebraske, pune kukuruznih polja, smještenih u središtu Sjedinjenih Država. Dok ljudi mogu prelijetati ili se voziti kroz to područje velikom brzinom ždralovi se zadržavaju na ovom mjestu, pored rijeke Pate, nalazeći i sklonište i hranu. Prošle godine, rekordnih 1 milion ždralova - oko 85 posto svjetske populacije ovih ptica - zaustavilo se na poljima Nebraske na svom migracionom putu ka sjeveru.
