Reinstein Woods Nature Preserve

Had an awesome walk. We viewed a Red Tail Hawk and a Screech Owl. This was the first time viewing an owl in the wild. What an awesome experience. It was just sitting there on the branch. We have walked here dozens of times and never have we had the opportunity. We have viewed a few different Red Tail Hawks here and many Deer and lots of different birds. Reinstein Woods is a wonderful gem of Buffalo New York. If you would like a chance to see an owl seems like the best chance is at dusk. We have always heard the calls but never got a chance to see one. Thank you!!!!

What a great park, beautiful Vistas. We saw some Millennial with a dog, that we scolded her and told her that there's are "officers that will fine us $250" Anyway, lovely crisp fall smells!! Thanks Dr. Reinstein!

My husband and I walk here often. It’s beautiful to explore. I like seeing the wildlife and foliage. I haven’t seen a frog or a turtle yet. I only heard the frogs. I have found painted rocks this year I rehide. I also painted 5 of them and scattered them around the park for people to find. Hope it brightened someone’s day. (LG 2020) Rehide or keep it?. I think it’s a fun thing to do especially in 2020. I posted the pictures too on the website.

Was great place to take the kids for a walk in nature while maintaining social distancing rules!!! Trails are very well maintained and easy for the kids to walk on. Saw many others also enjoying this little gem in Cheektowaga!!!

It's a great park and nature preserve. Unfortunately the Education Center and other areas were closed to COVID-19, but I'm assuming if open it would easily get 5 stars. Their acute attention to social distancing was assuring and we'll received. Definitely a great place for a quick escape to nature.
