Wapello

Bluewing Marsh is a 53 acre grassland that includes a 6 acre wetland on the North end. The area is located along a dirt road so access is somewhat limited depending on road conditions. The grassland consists of mixed prairie grasses and forbs. The 6 acre, seasonal wetland is an excellent resting place for migrating waterfowl during the fall and spring. Many species of ground nesting birds can be found throughout the restored grassland.
