Wildlife and their habitats play an integral role
in Nebraskan's daily lives. Without wildlife we could not experience the thunderous
roar of ten thousand Sandhill Cranes, the agility of a Swift Fox prancing across
the shortgrass prairie, or the nervous back-stroke of the rainbow-colored Finescale
Dace. These precious examples of wildlife along with the prairies, woodlands,
and streams that provide essential habitat would not exist without the passionate
commitment of and support of Nebraskans like you and the conservation community.
Birds have fascinated humans since the first time one of us heard a strange noise and looked up to see a creature that could leave Earth behind and glide through the skies on its own power. Birds can be fun, bothersome, intriguing, exasperating, beautiful, or scary. Your view of a bird depends on where you find it, what you're hoping to do, and what the bird is "up" to.
