Winter Bird Walk at Fontenelle Forest

Ever wondered what birds brighten up the Forest when there’s snow on the ground? Join us on a chilly January morning to learn about the birds that brave the winters at Fontenelle Forest! Bring your binoculars (or borrow a pair from us) and learn about some of the Forest’s 7 species of woodpeckers.

Search for splashes of color from cardinals or nuthatches! If you’ve ever been curious about what birds stick around Nebraska in the winter, come learn from one of our expert birding volunteers, Clem Klaphake!

This hike will largely stick to the boardwalk and focus on identifying birds that hang out in the Forest in the winter. Binoculars will be available to borrow. Recommended for children ages 12 or older.
