Scrub Jay Walk (October-May)

1st and 3rd Wednesday, 9-10 a.m.

This guided leisurely walk through the sand pine scrub is a great opportunity to learn about and view Florida scrub-jays. These birds found only in Florida, specifically in the scrub community, are not common and a special treat to see!

Guided Nature Walk

Fridays, 2-3 p.m.

Join us for a leisurely stroll through the scrubby flatwoods and river floodplain. Osprey, pileated woodpeckers and barred owls are some of the wildlife that can be seen. The walk may go through muddy or wet terrain.
