Corkscrew Swamp Miscellany

 

There are fields of alligator flag plants.


Lichen is common in Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary, but this seemed like an unusual type.


Raccoon.


"Nurse logs" are fallen, decaying trees that are hosts to other forms of life.


Swamp lily.


Bromeliads.


A young alligator.

How fine that there is a board walk through this swamp. You were successful in seeing some of the wildlife. Love your lichen, raccoon, and alligator photos.

Interesting walk. We have many nurse logs over here, but zero alligators!
