A rare prairie dance at dawn and dusk
Join guided viewing sessions for sharp-tailed grouse courtship displays, with early morning and evening wildlife watching in Niobrara State Park near the river confluence.
Event details
If your kids have never seen wildlife perform, this is the weekend that changes that. Niobrara State Park’s sharp-tailed grouse viewing weekends put you close to one of the Great Plains’ most memorable rituals: males strutting, stomping, and drumming their wings in a spring courtship dance.
The schedule includes check-in, evening viewing, and early-morning sessions, with plenty of down time for river overlooks and park trails. Bring warm layers, quiet snacks, and a headlamp for the early start.
