Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary is a National Audubon Society sanctuary located in SW Florida. Not much going on here. Very dry. So dry, as per Audubon volunteer,
the Wood Storks did not nest. The best part about this daytrip, were the tips we got during the brief rainstorm. They provided the knockout punches we were looking for.
Anyway, some shots from the park.
Dendrophylax lindenii, the leafless wonder.(I knew this was out of bloom before we left)

Baby gators.
Yellow-crowned Night Heron
Little Blue Heron
Great Egret
