Small conservation area of prairie, wetlands and oak woods offering seasonal wildflowers, migrating and resident birds, reed-fringed water edges and meandering trails. Best in spring for blooms and migration, late summer for dense greens, and autumn for warm foliage and low-angle light. Trails are moderate; parking at the trailhead on Hwy O. No fees; check for ticks and wet trail sections after rain. Sunrise and golden hour produce long shadows and reflective water surfaces.
