Swamps of Florida: Corkscrew & Big Cypress


[Corkscrew Swamp Title Page - Wildflowers]


At the Northwestern edge of the Everglades is one of the best preserved and maintained swamp ecosystems anywhere, with ancient cypress trees, landmarked like California's Redwoods, and a boardwalk hiking path into wetlands and lettuce ponds.

You can see more thistle - along with birds & bees - on my Nature Page ("Two bees or not two bees?")
