The Copperfield Nature Trails is part of the Walnut Creek greenbelt and is located in the transitional zone between Edwards Plateau and Blackland Prairie ecoregions. The greenbelt features grass lands, wood lands, three large ponds, an extensive limestone basin, and several tributaries that feed into Walnut Creek.  There are many plants found in the greenbelt.  Click here to view a slideshow or click a thumbnail to view a larger image.
