BioBlitz! 2005, September 9-10 Mohawk Park and Oxley Nature Center, Tulsa About the Area: Mohawk Park and the Oxley Nature Center support a diversity of habitats along the south bank of Bird Creek. The flood-plain forest, comprised of giant cottonwoods, sycamores, oaks, pecans, and hackberry trees and many other smaller trees and shrubs, is home to many kinds of animals and plants. Combined with open areas maintained as hay meadows or prairies and a variety of wetlands, the different habitats make especially rich combinations of conditions. In addition to bottomland forest habitats, Mohawk Park includes Lake Yahola, the Tulsa Zoo, the Mohawk Park Golf Club and expanses of highly managed, open recreational areas for picnicking.
