Wintery Guana Loop Trail

It is winter in Florida with strong winds, gray skies, rain and lots of migrating birds.  Took a hike on the Guana Loop Trail and Marshview Lane at the GTM National Estuarine Reserve.  Even though it rain heavily the day before, the trail was dry and cold enough to keep the snakes hibernating.

Marshview Lane

 

 Marshview Lane Trail is my favorite hiking trail at Guana River.  It crosses a freshwater marsh and has a large variety of grasses, wildflowers, trees, and reptiles.  A long deck was part of the trail to help cross the marsh.
