Bluebirds are furnishing nest boxes, pussy willows are blooming, and wood and chorus frogs are singing at the ephemeral pond.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n

Meet the Turkeys<\/h2>\n
\n

One bird\u2019s mess is another bird’s meal! Wehr\u2019s Wild Turkeys will gladly clean up the stray seed thrown to the ground by busy birds at the feeders. It’s quite a sight to find cardinals, doves, and sparrows eating right alongside these giant turkeys.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

About Wehr<\/h2>\n

\n

This is without a doubt, the best place to birdwatch and see wildlife in the Milwaukee metro area. The nature center is fantastic. The staff is welcoming and the trails are extremely well-maintained. Always something exciting to see!<\/p>\n\n <\/blockquote>\n
