Buena Vista Grasslands and the Greater Prairie Chicken Historical Kiosk
Vue d'ensemble
This 11,300-acre site is a mix of state-owned and leased lands scattered over 88 square miles. It is home to the largest concentration of Greater Prairie Chickens in Wisconsin. Buena Vista represents one of the most extensive grasslands east of the Mississippi River. The area has been developed by the DNR, the Dane County Conservation League and the Society of Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus. In the process of preserving the land for Prairie Chickens, habitat has been developed for a broad array of rare and uncommon birds. Also found within the project are wetlands and nesting Northern Harriers, Sandhill Cranes, Willow Flycatchers and Brown Thrashers.
