Sioux City was recently awarded the title of Bird Friendly City through the Bird Friendly Iowa program. The public is invited to celebrate the awarding of this title by Bird Friendly Iowa officials. This event is hosted by The Loess Hills Audubon Society and Woodbury County Conservation-Dorothy Pecaut Nature Center.
The ceremony will end with a raptor release with a rehabilitated raptor from Saving Our Avian Resources.
Quote from Councilman Matthew O'Kane: "Our collective fascination with birds starts with an imaginative look to the sky at a young age for most of us. An abundance of wildlife is a sign of a well maintained, environmentally sound, community. Like most aspects of maintaining a community, it takes constant attention and preening. It takes a collective effort by all of us to ensure that the place we call home is welcoming to all, including our feathered friends."
