Welcome to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Fee’s Spoonbill Sound Hammocks Environmental Space. Situated in Monroe County on 26.21 acres of wildlife wetland paradise surrounded by parts of dry land is an animal and plant heaven on earth.
In the event you like a ton of vegetation, shrubs, grasses, & timber then that is your mecca! On this premises alone are 144 listed completely different species with scientific names ranging alphabetically from Abildgaardia ovata, Acacia fernesiana to Ximenia americana, & Zoysia tenuifolia… yeah proper, like I’m actually accustomed to these! 🙂
That is NOT a household pleasant attraction, don’t plan a romantic picnic or perhaps a relationship bonding stroll all through nature’s Eden. This isn’t a park! The paths are very slender, poorly marked & terribly overgrown. That is for you die-hard survivalists prepared to tackle nature’s wetlands at its greatest with out whimpering like a nine-year previous woman! 🙂
The posted signal reads: No weapons, looking, tenting or autos allowed. Removing or destruction of vegetation, animals, artifacts or pure minerals prohibited. These persons are critical about preserving this as is! It additionally says ‘No Dumping’ that sadly various non-nature lovers have sadly disregarded.
You could find this nature-cherished haven for wildlife on US-1 at Mile Marker 22.2 oceanside by turning onto Pirates Highway.
