This spring, Little Traverse Conservancy and Brad invite you to join us at our Sally and Art Hailand, Jr. / Helstrom Family Nature Preserves for a spring Woodcock walk. Listen and watch these unique birds do their “sky dance” to find a mate. This will be an easygoing, quiet event for all to enjoy. To learn more about the Nature Preserve go to its website by clicking here.

Directions to the preserve at 4855 West Conway Road, Harbor Springs: At the intersection of Conway and US-31, turn left onto West Conway Road. In 0.2 miles, look for a sign and parking on the right. Or park just before this along the North Western State Trail (a paved trail) at the fountain and then walk north on the path about a hundred yards to directly access the preserves.
