Habitat diversity draws bird watchers, hunters to Iowa’s Copeland Bend Wildlife Area

Forty miles south of Council Bluffs, Iowa, on the Missouri River is the 3,500-plus-acre Copeland Bend Wildlife Area, an expansive mix of grasslands and high-quality wetlands constructed after the extensive flooding in 2011, when the big river was closed to boating, and levees up and down the Big Muddy were breached.
After the waters receded, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began to relocate and rebuild the levy system away from the river, creating a series of shallow wetlands and borrow pits as materials were needed to construct the new levee.
