Description:
This wildlife area is an excellent place to bird-watch – during migration season the number of waterfowl can top 400,000. Twenty-five species of wildlife and 295 species of birds make this refuge their home. A portion of the preserve has been returned to native tall prairie grass, and from mid-June through August you can view the carpets of purple Blazing Star and red Prairie Lily. The interpretive center includes a theater where informative films are shown, along with exhibits and an observation deck. Canoe trips and hiking trails are also available. A gift shop and café provide the perfect place to rest and pick up a few souvenirs.
