Aerial photos taken May 26, 2019, top, and July 31, 2020, show the Windy Point wetlands area before and after the artificial wetlands had been constructed. About 5.6 acres are underwater habitat, and the remaining 9.7 acres have been planted with warm-season grasses and forbs, which are herbaceous flowering plants. The area also includes a small walking path.
