“Over four decades, Steve Jones has spent more than 300 nights camping out by himself at a State Wildlife Area in the northwestern Nebraska Sandhills.  He was drawn to the Sandhills because it's the last expanse of mostly natural prairie in North America. In this State Wildlife Area alone, he's documented 124 potential breeding bird species while enjoying intimate interactions with long-eared owls, trumpeter swans, and wild turkeys. Steve Jones will discuss the unique natural processes in the Sandhills.  

Stephen Jones is the author of several books, his most recent being “Nourishing Waters, Comforting Sky,” which explores his intimate interactions with the prairie world of Smith Lake in Nebraska.

JOIN US—this program will be inspiring!  It is free and open to the public.”
