CE: Venture Parks Bird Crawl
ebraska Game and Parks Commission educators have scheduled interesting and engaging events for the curious in May. Here are several opportunities:
Bird Crawl in Venture Parks is May 14
Migrate to the Platte River valley May 14 for a daylong birding adventure. To celebrate Nebraska Bird Month and International Migratory Bird Day, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission is hosting Bird Crawl in the Venture Parks.
Registered participants will receive an itinerary to guide them, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., through three of the region’s Venture Parks: Schramm Park State Recreation Area, Platte River State Park and Eugene T. Mahoney State Park. Each stop will include birding activities such as learning about raptors, dissecting owl pellets, birding hike, games, and building a bird feeder.
Participants must supply their own transportation; each vehicle entering a state park area requires a park entry permit.
