Titusville 2022 - Part 4

 We had recently read about the Apopka Wildlife Drive just northwest of Orlando, Florida.  Since it wasn't too far from Titusville, we decided to check it out.


We soon noticed that there were a lot of Anhingas along the drive, many drying their feathers.

We discovered that this wildlife drive has a rookery used by Great Blue Herons, Anhingas and Cormorants.
