Small county conservation preserve with mixed prairie, oak woods and seasonal wetlands—great for intimate landscapes, birding and macro work. Trails and boardwalks lead to ponds and open meadows; expect quiet, local visitors. Best at golden hour and during spring migration or fall color; weekdays and mornings avoid dog-walkers. Parking at a small lot off Wildflower Ln; no fee and easy trail access.
