Wetlands are important habitats that tend to disappear as humans move into an area. Natural wetlands actually help the surrounding area by slowing runoff and filtering water. I am glad Boone created this beautiful site for walkers to observe.

Wetlands includes many plants that serve as food and shelter for wildlife in the area.

Boone has created a wetlands habitat along its walking trails so that the plants and animal inhabitants can be viewed up close.

I was thrilled to hear and see a pair of redwing blackbirds when I visited the area last week.

This is a great way to encourage wildlife to live in the area and control water runoff and possible flooding. These signs help visitors identify the inhabitants in the area.

I look forward to watching this area change throughout the spring summer and fall. Stay tuned.
