This enchanting video, taken by Mike Forsberg, features the unique American dipper, the only aquatic songbird in North America. Not only does this bird sing beautiful songs, but it also forages in rapids and waterfalls to find food as you can see in the video. #plattebasin

It's not often that we see waterfalls in this relatively flat state, but they are out there! This branch of the North Loup River is on a ranch in Cherry County, Nebraska. The creek is entirely fed by groundwater from the Ogallala Aquifer, and bison graze on the grass. #timelapse

Fog kind of looks like a cloud but closer to the ground. It consists of tiny water droplets and typically forms near different waterways, such as our wetlands as shown in this picture. This picture was taken by Ethan Freese. #wetlandwednesday #plattebasintimelapse

Phantom Canyon is 30 miles northwest of Fort Collins and consists of 1,700 acres. This camera overlooks the North Fork of Cache La Poudre River. Here, The Nature Conservancy is working to protect natural ecological zones in the canyon and restore prairie using fire and grazing.

Jack Creek Meadow, a place where beavers and many other animals eat, breathe and call home. This beautiful open meadow and beaver pond complex is located at 9,600 feet above seal level. It is located on a small tributary of the Illinois River in North Park, Colorado. #timelapse

"Nearly every time I step outdoors, something fills me with awe. Often times, it’s the big picture- what is most prominent on the landscape. Zooming in, however, can prove an even more humbling experience." For more on this story visit, plattebasintimelapse.com/2016/02/zoom-i… #plattebasint

Are you a UNL student interested in learning about conserving species such as sandhill cranes and greater-prairie chickens? This is an exciting learning opportunity that will take place during Spring Break. For more information, please read through the flyers below. #plattebasin

Here we have the Middle Loup River that beautifully winds through Gudmundsen Ranch in the Nebraska Sandhills. Watch this peaceful timelapse video, as the sun rises and sets, and as the seasons change, showing off the beauty of the Nebraska Sandhills. #timelapsetuesday

This image shows a boiling spring on the perimeter of a a fen wetland where the water pressure from below was strong enough to suspend sand particles. This image was taken by Dakota Altman, a graduate student with PBT. #nebraskawetlands #plattebasintimelapse #protectwetlands

Sometimes, little things make a big difference. In the case of wetland ecosystems, that is certainly true. Here we have insect life at Little Salt Fork Marsh Preserve. @unl_snr #nebraskawetlands #plattebasintimelapse #protectwetlands #negameandparks #wildnebraska

Winter is quickly approaching which means wetland species have a variety of adaptations to deal with during this cold time of the year. This time of the year is a chance to appreciate the diversity of these habitats as we wait for the magic of the spring thaw. #nebraskawetlands
