The Experience of a Lifetime for One Lucky Volunteer
Just last week, one of our long-time volunteers got the treat of a lifetime when she spotted two juvenile Florida Panthers! The second one is just beyond the left side of the image frame.

Partnering to Protect Wetland Habitat
Water Hyacinth, a flowering, aquatic plant native to South America, has been overtaking lakes, canals, and other freshwater bodies across the southern U.S. since it was first introduced as an ornamental more than a century ago. In 2015, Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary’s land management and research staff helped launch a project with scientists from the USDA Agriculture Research Services and the University of Florida to learn more about Water Hyacinth control. Following work that was done in a greenhouse facility, the large-scale field trial at Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary is proving that the combined effects of herbicide and biocontrol on Water Hyacinth is a model for collaborative efforts. Please help us spread the word about the importance of managing invasive species like Water Hyacinth.

Audubon's Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary
Audubon's Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary comprises 13,000 acres of sensitive land owned and protected by the National Audubon Society since 1954. Its renowned 2.25-mile boardwalk winds through the world's largest remaining bald cypress forest. Up until the early 1900's few people outside of southern Florida had ever heard of Corkscrew. Learn more about the history of Corkscrew.
The mission of Audubon's Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary is to protect the natural resources of Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary, its surrounding watershed, and the Western Everglades, and to influence Everglades restoration, for the benefit of birds, other wildlife and people through land management, science, education, restoration, and public policy advocacy.
