Robert Lynd once said, “In order to see birds, you must become part of the silence.” We like this idea of becoming one with nature—if you do too, or if you’re just a birding enthusiast, Logan County offers you a number of great sites to spot the next bird on your list, or just to take in some wild life… Sandsage Trail in the northeastern corner of Logan County sits atop a special ecosystem, a mix of desert and prairie known as sandsage, home to tall grass species with a little southwestern spice! During the summer, be sure to stop out at the North Sterling Resevoir where you’ll find pelicans scattered across the lake soaking in the summer sun. And another incredible site to put on your bucket list, can be viewed here at the North Sterling Resevoir and takes place every year after the first freeze or snow storm is the crane migration, and boy is it incredible! Don’t just take our word for it—the sights and sounds are something you need to see for yourself! And you’re a night owl yourself, take advantage of the incredible view of endless stars peppering the night sky.
