My first visit to Quivera National Wildlife Refuge in central Kansas taught me that, as suggested on the website, sunrise or sunset are the times to view the most birds and animals. I struggled to find birds to take pictures of, but I enjoyed myself regardless. I don’t see myself visiting during those prime hours as I go places alone and veer on the side of personal safety, so I have to be content with what I get. Unfortunately, the visitor center was closed so I didn’t get any further information, but driving the roads through the refuge was fun, although a bit lonely as I passed perhaps half a dozen other people the entire day! I stopped often to get a closer look at the few birds out and about, and was able to get these pictures. Next trip I’ll try to remember my tripod so I can make better use of my zoom lens. I cropped in on several of the pictures for ease of viewing. ~SueBee




















I would like to go there.
We enjoyed our visit there as well!
I look forward to going back!
