On February 26, 2015 we spent the entire day in The Everglades again participating in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Festival.
This annual week-long festival is a function of the Collier County Museums but specifically run by the Museum of The Everglades in Everglades City.

We have gone to festival events in the past and know how wonderful they are. In fact, we saw Otter John two years ago
and really enjoyed seeing him again this year. Otter John is a wonderful naturalist and an excellent educator.
In fact, the local schools bus in groups of young primary grade students whose enthusiasm adds to the fun of Otter John's shows.

Otter John handles and teaches about some animals and reptiles that are living in The Everglades.
Not all are natural inhabitants and Otter John educates on the issues with invasive speices.
