A Visual Walk in Wolf Road Prairie

Jerry Kumery

The savannas, marshes and wet prairie that make up the 80-acre Wolf Road Prairie Nature Preserve include some of the finest, black soil prairie east of the Mississippi. In these photos, photographer Jerry Kumery captures some of its most breathtaking details. Wolf Road Prairie, near Westchester, IL., is owned by the Cook County Forest Preserve District.
