Blackhawk Springs Forest Preserve
Wooded trails, oak savanna, spring-fed wetlands and prairie pockets make Blackhawk Springs a varied natural canvas — great for wildflower and bird photography in spring, fall color in autumn, and intimate landscape studies year-round. Best light is golden hour and early morning for mist and active wildlife; weekdays and mornings mean fewer people. Small gravel parking areas off Mulford and Perryville; free entry. Trails are mostly easy but wear boots after rain. A local conservation area focused
