Boardwalk @Corkscrew - HSS

Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary in Naples, FL

 

Today, a boardwalk of a little over 3 km (1.9 mi) length provides walking access through (actually 'over') pine flatwoods, wet prairie, pond cypress, bald cypress, and marsh ecosystems within the sanctuary.

 

The sanctuary is a 'gateway site' for the Great Florida Birding Trail. It is an important breeding area for the endangered wood stork and other wetland birds. (Wikipedia)

 

Happy Slider Sunday!
