Saw saturn was cool

This is an excellent preserve located just a few minutes from downtown Byron. The newly renovated nature center is great for both parents and children alike. There are several little displays with interesting facts about the prairie plants and animals. My nearly two year old daughters loved the play area on he west side of the center. The trails are well maintained and the flowers and warm season grasses are beautiful. The nearby observatory is open on Tuesday and Saturday nights from June through August, and Saturday nights September through May.

Great little nature museum. Nice hiking trails of modest length.
