Summer Shows on Swamplovers' Preserve

Come out and celebrate the first day of summer at this wonderful preserve that consists of remnant and restored wetlands, bluff prairie, tall grass prairie, and dry hilly oak-hickory woodland. In past years, we have observed an impressive variety of dragonflies and butterflies as we explored the different habitats. Bring binoculars (close-focusing ones work best) along with your own lunch and beverages to enjoy when we finish the trip at the bluff-top picnic shelter.
