The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission and Tout Bird Club will host a birding event on Saturday, May 20. All ages are welcome to come learn about birds at Lake Maloney State Recreation Area at Kansas Point as part of the Nebraska International Migratory Bird Month.

The evening will begin at 3 p.m. at the SRA with birding stations to build bird feeders, nesting material and more. At 4 p.m. join us for a hike along the trail system to view all the different bird species in the area.

The event is free and a park permit is not needed that day as it is free park entry day across the state.

Migratory Bird Month events will give those who attend a greater understanding and appreciation for the feathered visitors that pass through our state each year. For more information or to find a birding event in Nebraska, visit http://www.nebraskabirdmonth.org/.
