Natural Features
This preserve has very sandy soils and a high water table creating a dynamic floral understory. In spring there are numerous ephemeral ponds and it is popular breeding area for frogs. There is a man-made pond on the property with sunfish and a very large goldfish. Open areas created by pipeline management are used as breeding grounds by woodcock and provide habitat for some unusual flora, particularly sedges.
