Oak Openings Preserve Metropark encompasses close to 5,000 acres of the richest biodiversity found in northwest Ohio, including state-listed rare plants and animals as well as unique grassland and forest bird species. During the Biggest Week in American Birding, which is mostly known for its warbler diversity, we got to explore this lesser-known, but awesome area with one of the tour groups.
