West Pawnee Ranch
Located north of the west section of the Pawnee National Grassland, the Ranch features a variety of habitats including grasslands, riparian, juniper-laden rocky ridges and a wetland/pond complex. Wild Turkeys are common. Golden Eagles have nested on the property and the site is an oasis for many a migrant songbird. In the fall and spring, many surprises could abound. Porcupines and swift foxes can also be seen here.
