The Schlitz Audubon Nature Center has a well-deserved reputation for its education programs and its exemplary collection of living raptors. The main building also sits on 185 acres of forests, wetlands, restored prairies, ravines, bluffs and Lake Michigan shoreline. Six miles of trails wind through it all. I saw quite a lot of it during a two-hour walk on a misty morning recently. And until the very end, when I happened upon a class of sixth graders learning how to canoe on Mystery Lake, I had the whole place to myself.
Here is a little of what I saw.
