Small urban preserve with a slow creek, boardwalks and mixed wetland/woodland edges — good for intimate nature scenes: reflections, close-up flora, migrating/wintering birds and seasonal color. Best at golden hour or overcast mornings for soft light; spring for wildflowers, fall for foliage. Trails are short and mostly flat; on-street parking along Sycamore/Linden. No fee; expect muddy sections and mosquitoes in summer.
