Small but big sometimes is best!
We were here last weekend. Beautiful sunny cool pleasant day. Got there about 8:20. First time here. The views of the IL River were spectacular. We were about 30 minutes into our hike, when we started to hear gunshots.
Well unbeknownst to us, we didn't know it was a gun range in the area.
We sorta tried to just tune out those sounds and just get more into our hike. Saw several different species of birds. Then we finally saw an eagle . That was really cool!
We met some friendly faces along the trail too!
Plan to go back before winter sets in and see the two remaining buffalo .
We heard that there was a recent loss.
Hope they can introduce more buffalo to the park.
