Description
The colony of Burrowing Owl is charming and accessible - the birds can be viewed from the roadside. On the drive into the park watch for Long-billed Curlew, Lark Bunting, Clay-colored Sparrow and Vesper Sparrow, Chestnut-collared Longspur, and many more. There is a short walking trail with a spectacular view over the prairie landscape. Watch for Bison!
