Sandhill Cranes Live Webcam
Check out our Live feed of one of our Sandhill Crane Nests right on the Preserve! This nest has two eggs that were laid in early April. Sandhill Cranes have an Incubation Period of 29-32 days, so we expect to see babies by early May.
May is American Wetlands Month
Did you know that 65% of the Swaner Preserve is considered wetland?
These moisture-laden areas clean your water, provide flood protection, and are a refuge for wildlife. Wetlands around the world are threatened, but you can help restore Swaner’s by volunteering or donating to help with our conservation efforts.
The EcoCenter is Open!
The EcoCenter is open Friday – Sunday from 10 am to 4 pm. Our community’s health and safety is our primary objective. We have made some updates
