A compact wetland and prairie reserve with marshes, riverine edges and mature trees—prime for raptor and waterbird photography (bald eagles in winter/migration). Trails and observation points offer clear sightlines; small parking area near the entrance. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm side-light and active birds; visit late fall–early spring for peak eagle sightings. Lightweight waders/bug spray in summer; no permits typically required.
