Cope Environmental Center - nature preserve offering programs, demonstrations, and research.

Hayes Arboretum - "a living museum", offering nature programs, hiking facilities, and nature center. Of special interest is the bird room that allows you to watch birds at numerous feeders from a comfortable, indoor space.  A nice surprise is the well-placed microphone that allows you to hear the birds as well.
