WOLF CREEK TROUT LILY PRESERVE FEBRUARY 29 2024

Having just returned to Georgia after a 1000 mile drive I was pretty wiped out but I learned that the preserve was still open until this coming Saturday and I decided to go. I have been coming here for years, and I was truly impressed with the many trail improvements that have been done and all of the upgrades to the preserve. There is so much to learn, and the preserve has made a very good effort at education with lots of signs that were designed to help people understand the ecological importance of the preserve. This is a truly special place! I spent the afternoon trying to take the best photographs I could to highlight the beauty of the place!

In one of the photographs, you will see a highway. To the left of the highway is the actual preserve.

TROUT LILIES AND HEPATICA BLOOM AT BOWMAN’S HILL WILDFLOWER PRESERVE

We had a great visit to Bowman’s Hill Wilflower Preserve. Our Afternoon wildflower walk guide, Maggie, gave a great tour of the Spring Ephemerals. It turns out we gave her a tour a few years ago when she was a student in the Pennsylvania Master Naturalist Program, in which our work in Morris Park is often included in the curriculum.
