At Willowbrook Wildlife Center you can see a variety of animals and plants
currently, (or originally) native to DuPage County. Animals as common as
Raccoons and Opossums and as amazing (and beneficial) as Turkey Vultures. On the
natural trail you can see wild animals interacting with their environment. A
Great Blue Heron might be stalking fish and frogs in the marsh pond or a Tree
Swallow could be seen snatching insects right out of the air. Bees are busy
gathering nectar and pollinating Purple Cone Flowers and Black Eyed Susans on
the Prairie mound. Our newest educational area offers ideas on native plants that attract butterflies and hummingbirds and ways to landscape your yard to attract wildlife.
