Small suburban park with ponds, wooded trails and open lawns — good for intimate landscape, waterscape and bird photography. Best at golden hour for warm light on trees and reflections; fall color and winter ice offer strong seasonal variety. Park is free, easy street parking off Champaign St, generally accessible paths; visit weekdays or early mornings to avoid local dog-walkers.
