Join us to celebrate Central Wisconsin’s Grassland habitats. A truly unique and breathtaking experience. Come to see the Prairie Chicken do its mating dance, to find out what you can do in your backyard to benefit wildlife, see kestrels in their nests or learn from Master Bird banders as they band birds for research. These are just a few of the many activities to take part in the weekend. For further information check out their webpage!!
