Hike the Preserves at Crabtree Nature Center near Chicago, IL.
With the help of active restoration and natural succession, the 1,182 acre parcel of farmland that has become Crabtree Nature Center has been restored to ecological heath and biodiversity.
Crabtree is known as a birding site. Up to 270 species have been recorded migrating through the area. Many have been thrilled to spy a sandhill crane family or spot a flock of hooded mergansers on the lake.

It’s been a while since I was at Crabtree but I always enjoyed my visits there. Thanks for reminding me. I’ll make a point of going there again soon.
