Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary;
Collier county, Florida (12 March 2023).
Spring Break 2023
After leaving Lake county very, very early in the morning (but not as early as I’d intended due to the Daylight Savings change), my first real stop for Spring Break 2023 was Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary in Collier county, a private park protecting a considerable range of South Florida eco- and bio-diversity. The park features a 2.25 mile elevated boardwalk trail that traverses a range of habitats including pine flatwoods, cypress forest, and wet prairie. This photo is from the pine flatwoods area at the start of the trail.
