Nice place to wander around now that it's warming up. Plenty of shade, restrooms and water in a couple locations. Starting at the entrance at the end of the library parking lot and taking the 1st path on the right after the fishing pond, you can walk the perimeter to the canal. That's just shy of a mile. As you walk along the canal there are a few paths where you can rejoin the preserve. I retracted my route a couple times since I was just trying to get 3 miles in. Saw a ton of bunnies, some ducks and other water birds, but the big migration is over. We saw one turtle crossing the path. Gates open at 5:30am.
