Description
Urban wetlands are far more than scenic backdrops; they're active migration corridors, filtering water and feeding the birds passing through Boston each season. Walk the trails at Boston Nature Center and discover how wetland plants adapt to shifting water levels, why these habitats are essential for wildlife and people alike, and how the birds using them navigate thousands of miles of open sky.
Along the way, learn about the generations of people who have cared for this land and the community stewardship that continues today.
