Florida narrowleaf sunflower ~ Helianthus angustifolius
Also known as Swamp sunflower, Narrowleaf sunflower is one of Florida’s most common sunflowers. It occurs naturally in marshes, wet flatwoods and roadside ditches throughout North and Central Florida. It is a short-lived perennial, and blooms primarily in October and November, although some flowering can occur in September and December. In nature, it tends to form dense colonies, resulting in spectacular swaths of sunshine yellow. Narrowleaf sunflower blooms attract bees and butterflies, while its seeds provide a tasty treat for birds.
During the breeding season, adult Snowy Egrets develop long, wispy feathers on their backs, necks, and heads. In 1886 these plumes were valued at $32 per ounce, which was twice the price of gold at the time. Plume-hunting for the fashion industry killed many Snowy Egrets and other birds until reforms were passed in the early twentieth century. The recovery of shorebird populations through the work of concerned citizens was an early triumph and helped give birth to the conservation movement. ~ Cornell Labs
The dynamic diversity found in Everglades National Park is driven by the the sheer dynamism of the weather found in this environment- tropical and rainy, the Everglades can often be gloomy, grey, and wet. On the day that I took this picture, a blanket of clouds covered the entire park and boxed in the scenery. But then, as the sun began to sink towards the horizon and break through the clouds, a magic show began.

As I went for my run, last night, there was a beautiful lightning storm happening over the Everglades. Summer is on her way. Can’t wait.

I usually say Everglades National Park is the hardest national park to photograph in. I don’t resent it for that; I respect it. The Everglades is subtle. The Everglades is challenging. High sawgrass prevents you from getting a glimpse of the landscape, save for at specific “windows” or gaps in the brush. The animals can be rare and taciturn.
This weekend, however? Easy.
I can’t believe I got this shot.
The heron didn’t fly off.
The sun and clouds cooperated.
The trees were perfectly lit.
This is EXACTLY what The Everglades is.
This grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never all dried at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal sunset, eternal dawn and gloaming, on seas and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls.
