Very professional
This is an excellent location to take in a morning or evening tour in the blinds to observe the Sandhill Cranes either coming to roost at night or leaving in the morning to go the fields to feed. Volunteers there are very passionate, and do a great job educating. Cost is $50 a person, but you will experience the cranes in a very positive way.

Could be the Super Bowl of birdwatching!
The cranes were spectacular, as always. We have visited and gone on the tours at least a half a dozen times. The blinds were large and comfortable. We did the morning tour and it was very chilly so dress warm. The cranes took off in large groups and the WHOOSH when they began their flight and the deafening calls in the ensuing flight are a unique and a bucket list experience. Masks are still required on the tour on the property. If it weren’t for the mask Nazi in the gift shop, I would have given this experience my highest rating.
