Huge crawdad on a rainy day in the woods!

The Nature Park welcomes the birth of five baby birds. What a blessing after Earth day! 🐣

Happy Earth Day! 🌲🦋🌎🦜 How did you celebrate today?

Today we see a sign of success for all our hard work... This spot was covered with a big thicket of non-native honeysuckle. We cleared it away and are rewarded with a beautiful patch of bloodroot, a native wildflower.

Spring updates... spring beauty emerging, spiders crawling, and one big garter snake on the trail today.

Do you know what plants in the Depauw Nature Park are invasive and non-native? This student knows...

We're out and about today, hauling stone to fix trails in the park after last week's heavy rains. Trail repair 101!!!

Snow has melted but quarry walls are still dripping big icicles!

Several DePauw Nature Park trails are closed due to being ice covered. They are blocked with barricades. Please refrain from using those until they’re opened back up by staff.

Students are transplanting flowers today in the greenhouse at the Nature Park, think spring!!!
