Nebraska birders,
I walked the Oldfather Trail at Cottonmill Park just west of Kearney this morning. If you ever have a chance to go there, I recommend it. There's a small lake, open woodlands and some upland prairie. It's a bit hilly and very beautiful. I've walked the trail in the past but not all the way to the north end like I did today. You know how we sometimes neglect good places that are in our "backyard." My ebird lists are at https://ebird.org/checklist/S388277530 and https://ebird.org/checklist/S388297154.
I look forward to seeing you at the Nebraska ornithologists' Union birding event September 11-13 at the University of Nebraska at Kearney.
