Trails, including a boardwalk, an observation platform and an observation tower provide access for observing a variety of plants and animals found at the Nature Center, located on the Upper and Lower Lakes Wildlife Management Area. Watch for resident and migrant birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and insects. Study the trees, shrubs, wildflowers, and wetland plants close-up.
