Yhteenveto: | Bird Effigy Mound located across from the Oscar Rennebohm Library on the Edgewood College campus. This mound is a representative of the prairie ecosystem located on the Edgewood College campus. Each spring the mound is part of a controlled prairie burn which encourages prairie plant species and discourages the growth of a woodland ecosystem. This photograph shows the Bird Effigy Mound after the prairie burn. This effigy mound is also identified by a plaque that reads “Indian Bird Effigy Mound. Body 80 Feet. Wingspread 260 Feet. Marked by the History Department of the Madison Woman’s Club 1919.” |
