Volunteers are being sought to help with the annual fall deer survey at Homestead National Monument in southeast Nebraska.

The count is scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. Saturday.

Organizers say no experience is needed to count the deer. The volunteers should anticipate walking about three-quarters of a mile through the prairie. Other volunteers are needed to watch monument boundaries and count deer as they leave.

The survey is expected to be finished by noon.

The monument sits about four miles west of Beatrice, just off Nebraska Highway 4.
