Olesen’s Flyway is a prime birds-on-the-move spot along the Missouri River area—excellent for cranes, geese, and other migrating waterfowl at dawn/dusk. Shoot reflections, low-angle silhouettes against the sky, and long-lens flight shots. Best light is early morning or late afternoon in fall and spring; crowds are usually light but weather can be windy and cold.
