Lake Forest Open Lands maintains over 700 acres of open
space, including woodlands, wetlands and several rare and
globally-significant prairies, ravines and savannas. By
restoring these properties to their native condition, the
habitats are greatly improved for uncommon animals such as the
Eastern Bluebird and the Great Egret, and wildflowers such as
the Indian Paintbrush and Giant White Trillium. These nature
preserves reach all the way from the lakefront to the more
rural landscapes west of Waukegan
Road. |
