Fern Forest NC is on the Great FL Birding Trail...
It's 247 acres of urban wilderness,
Containing over 30 species of ferns,
Located in Coconut Creek...
Ru and I visited there recently;
Overall I was a bit disappointed but
We did see a couple things of interest...
Like a few monarch butterflies in the Sensory Garden area...
And a distant wren, not sure which one it is....
Any help would be most welcome...
It appears to have white below the eye,
On the throat and a white eye band...
Back coloring is solid not mottled...
Carolina wren?
I'm definitely getting senile...I thought I'd shared a photo of
The ruddy daggerwing butterfly, but have not...
This one is better than the previous photos I'd taken anyway...
Wild coffee grows abundantly in S. Florida,
I think we've seen it at every park/nature ctr.
We've visited so far.
I'm really anxious to see more birds
But it's windy and cold (for Florida anyway)...
A/c hasn't even come on today! That's a first.
