Marc- Our morning walk brought us back to two familiar places: The Fern trail and the Cypress Swamp trail. We saw several turtles on the fern trail and four alligators on the Cypress Swamp trail. There were also birds - great white egrets, anhingas, red shouldered hawks and vultures.

Some of the birds we heard today, identified by the app called Merlin
After lunch we took the Park tram tour over to the restricted sections of the park. This area borders wet areas where many alligators are found as well as black bear, white tailed deer and panther. We saw many alligators, turtles and two deer.
