Small urban wetland with shallow marshes, reeds, open water and seasonal birdlife — great for intimate nature and waterscape shots. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm side-light and reflections; spring and migratory seasons for birds; fall for color and winter for minimalist compositions. Easy, flat walking trails with street parking on Basswood Ave, no fee; expect mosquitoes in warm months.
