Miller Park
For a city park, Miller can't be topped. It has a playground, ball fields, tennis courts, picnic shelters and tables, toilets, community center-- and still offers woods, wildflowers, and a living stream. From Bus. I-40 take the Knollwood exit to go south. Cross Stratford Rd. to the traffic light at Queen St. and turn left to the main parking lot on the right. From Silas Creek Pkwy. So. turn north onto Miller St. for one mile and turn left at Queen St.

Miller Park features many large trees in bottomland, slope, and upland association. Ninety species of birds have been seen, including nesting Yellow-crowned Night Heron, five woodpeckers, winter raptors and ground-feeders, and one of the best passerine migrations in the city. Paved walks and footpaths offer differing views and habitats.

The Audubon Society conducts quarterly trash pick-up, and has started a wildflower plot at the head of the side-creek. Miller Park is quite popular, but the birds don't seem to mind.
