Small university-managed wetlands offering boardwalks, shallow ponds and reed beds ideal for birding, reflections, marsh textures and seasonal color. Best at dawn for active waterfowl and mist, or golden hour for warm reflections. Easy trails and on-site parking; minimal facilities—bring bug spray and waterproof shoes. Free entry; weekdays are quieter. Winter ice and spring migration are highlights.
