Calendar of Events
At Rowe Sanctuary
First Sundays at Rowe
The next
First Sundays at Rowe will be
December 6th at 1:30 p.m. With
native grasses and fallen leaves rustling in the breeze and the symphony
from flocks of birds streaming south, late fall is a great time to explore
Rowe Sanctuary.
This
month’s program will take advantage of this natural music by offering a
workshop called ‘The Music of Nature - The Nature of Music’ presented by
former UNK professor of music Annabell Zikmund, and Rowe Volunteers Susan
Elmore and Jackie Flohr.
Other activities include
guided nature hikes that
will take you into the prairie, along the Platte River and into our
viewing blinds. Your guides will help you with birdwatching techniques as
well as identifying plants and other animals. Bring your binoculars and
sense of adventure!
And to help ward off the fall chill we will have the campfire blazing and
marshmallows ready to roast. So come, bring the whole family, tell your
neighbors and join us for a great afternoon exploring nature.

National Events
Hawk Watch
September - December
Held
at various locations throughout
North America, hawk watch sites collect data on our migrating
raptors in order to better understand their conservation
status. They are a great place to learn about raptors, improve your
identification skills and a good excuse to get outdoors. To find a hawk
watch site near you, visit www.hmana.org.
