Everglades City

Driving over 2,000 miles and through eight states, I arrived in Everglades City in southwest Florida last evening. It is an amazing place with wildlife and nature all around.


The most common birds are the Northern Mockingbird, Common Grackle and Eurasian Collared Dove here in town and as you get into the wetter areas there are Great and Cattle Egrets, Moorhens and Gallinules, and Ibis.


I crossed through Panther territory on the road in and eventually want to visit and maybe volunteer at the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge run by US Fish and Wildlife.


Watch for more news on the EC, coming soon.
