Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary

Corkscrew is located on the outskirts of Naples, Fl. It is a beautiful place to visit. 2 1/2 mile boardwalk takes you through various habitats. It is not always the best place for lots of great bird images, but worth a visit anyway.

Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos! I have had many pleasant walks at Corkscrew, and never saw this many birds. Joan Bieler
