| I led an ICBC trip to Belgum's Grove this morning. Or at least I went as no one else showed up. I think it might be a neat place in Spring or Summer. It is a 40 acre preserve owned by the Johnson Co Heritage Trust, and is mostly grassland and some restored prairie. It is located W of Hills. One my way down, I stopped at some muddy place from where the Iowa had been out of its banks. I got all exited as I saw shorebirds! Alas they were all Killdeer [or is it Killdeers or Killsdeer] Rick Hollis North Liberty, IA " Look deeply into nature, and then you will understand everything better.
