June marks Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month, popularly known as Pride Month. Celebrations include pride parades, picnics, parties, and, in the case of ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ, bird walks. Our Let's Go Birding Together series was founded and organized by Jason St. Sauver, Community Education director at Spring Creek Prairie ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Center in Denton, Nebraska. ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ sites across the country have joined Jason in creating inclusive birding events.
Let's Go Birding Together walks are for everyone who loves birds and the outdoors. We welcome those who identify as LGBTQ, allies, families, and anyone who wants to enjoy an outdoor experience that is inclusive.
