Small suburban preserve with ponds, marshy boardwalks, grassland trails and native wildflowers — great for bird and wetland scenes, reflections, and intimate landscape studies. Best at sunrise or golden hour for soft light and mist; spring and fall bring migrants and blooms. Easy parking at 1300 Willis Ln, free entry, short accessible trails and boardwalks but expect mosquitoes in summer; weekdays are quieter.
