Is Lake Hornborga Common Crane Spring Dance happening right now?
As of today, out of season, returns ~March. Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.
Each spring tens of thousands of common cranes (Grus grus) stop at Lake Hornborga in western Sweden to feed, rest and perform elaborate courtship 'dances'.
The congregation and daily dawn/dusk activity make Hornborga one of northern Europe's most reliable spring crane spectacles.
