Large mixed-grass prairie and wetland complex with boardwalks and trails offering expansive skies, seasonal wildflowers, reed-lined ponds and good waterfowl/birdlife. Best at golden hour for warm side-light and reflections; spring and fall migrations increase bird activity. Easy access with parking at the visitor lot, no entry fee, mostly flat and wheelchair-friendly paths. Expect wind; weekdays and early mornings are quiet.
