I'd researched Florida looking for places to photograph and somewhere along the way this one popped up as a place to view wildlife.
I'm so pleased I did.  I shot everything from dragonflies to alligators and saw many birds I'd never heard of before, llike this triple coloured heron.  It's free and you can't get lost and, when I was there, it was free of children.
The trails are simple to follow and, if you're interested in wildlife, you could easily spend 3-5 hours here.
This place is famous for its huge gators.  I've been there several times and have always seen some.  This guy, however, is an exceptionally large dude.  I cut my hike short and let him sit in the sun.
...and, yes, there were alligators in all sizes from babies upwards.  This was the largest I came across.  I'm guessing he would be classed as large.
