Pioneers Park is one of Nebraska's top destinations, located only a short drive from Lincoln and full of attractions.

Along the way, you'll see some unique buildings that have been standing in the park for decades and are carefully preserved.

At the Pioneers Park Nature Center, you'll find some impressive preserved specimens of large birds of prey.

But today, you're more interested in the smallest birds! Nebraska is on the hummingbird migration route, and they're frequently seen in large numbers on the nature center's grounds.
