The birthday tradition continues! Tori and I finally got to go for our father / daughter hike to celebrate her birthday. We headed to one of our favorite spots at Konza Prairie Biological Station to hike the Konza Prairie Nature Trail near Manhattan, KS. Konza Prairie is a research area owned by the Nature Conservancy and co-operated by Kansas State University. There they study and preserve the tallgrass prairie ecosystem that once covered the midwest. Spring on the Konza Prairie is a beautiful time when wild turkey flocks forage freely and the song of the Eastern Meadowlark can be heard everywhere you go. Also marking Spring in Kansas is the evidence of prescribed burns designed to revitalize the soil and promote new growth of the grasslands. As a family we always enjoy visiting Konza Prairie. Tori and I had a wonderful hike on this beautiful Spring morning. Come along and see!
