I visited this lovely conservancy area for a quick visit when I was in the Green Bay / De Pere area. Osprey Point is 80 acres, and it a beautiful place to wander around. But be smarter than me and put on bug spray! I got so many mosquito bites during my short stay. Granted, I visited right after it rained, so all of the little bug were out and looking for fresh blood.
Along with mosquitos, I also saw wild turkeys! I was surprised and delighted to see them in the brush, but apparently wild turkeys are common around this area. I've never seen one in the wild, though! So to me, it was kind of cool. There's also an osprey nest on the grounds somewhere, but I never saw it.
There are two ponds here, where you can go fishing, if you wish. If you don't wish to fish, you can feed the fish if you have a quarter: There's a fish food dispenser by the pond.
Osprey Point is a nice little park to walk around and see some Wisconsin nature. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. read more
