Birdaton Field Trip at Platte River State Park

Scenic river hills habitat resembles the great forests further east and attracts unique breeding birds along with stunning migrants. Our hike will follow the Stone Creek trail renowned for being the best place in Nebraska to find Louisiana water thrushes as well as an excellent place for breeding summer and scarlet tanagers. We'll also keep our eyes and ears peeled for other eastern delights such as tufted titmouse and Kentucky warbler. From I-80 turn south at exit #426 and follow S13E past South Bend to park entrance. We'll meet in the parking lot next to the observation tower and Scott Lodge restaurant.
