Nebraska Nature Set
With its iconic sandhills, 2,000 lakes, mighty rivers, and myriad marshes, as well as tallgrass, mixed-grass, and shortgrass prairies, Nebraska is rich in flora and fauna. Megafauna like Elk, Pronghorns, Bighorn Sheep, and White-tailed Deer (the state mammal) abound, as do a multitude of waterfowl, fascinating reptiles like Ornate Box Turtle and Great Plains Skink, and many unique prairie plants. To better acquaint you with the natural history of the Cornhusker State, we have packaged together three portable references—Birds, Trees & Wildflowers, and Wildlife—in an attractive acetate bag. Each guide features beautiful illustrations of over 100 common species, as well as an ecoregion map showing top bird-finding, botanical, or wildlife-viewing hotspots. Laminated for durability, these lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guides comprise a comprehensive three-pack for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, botanists, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to develop a deeper understanding of some 300 of Nebraska’s most representative plants and animals. Made in the USA.
