A compact wetlands and prairie reserve offering intimate wildlife scenes — waterfowl, shorebirds, reed-lined pools and seasonal wildflowers. Best at dawn or dusk for soft light and active birds; spring and fall migrations peak for diversity. Rural access via 610th St with limited roadside parking; expect gravel lanes and insects. No formal entry fee; bring boots for uneven terrain and a telephoto for distant subjects.
