There is no where like the high drift prairies of North Dakota. Yesterday we took a ramble on the prairie. The Prairie Ramble field trip at the Potholes and Prairies Birding Festival. This is the School Sections at Chase National Wildlife Refuge…a square mile of unbroken prairie which has been grazed regularly (a good thing as we learned from the Chase NWR Manager during the trip…grazing is needed for the health of native prairie plants and wildlife, especially in the absence of regular prairie fires).
