Hello, Happy Monday everyone!
I am sharing more on our road trip to Florida. I mentioned before how I like to research new parks and places to visit before leaving home. On this day I already had the address in our GPS for the Haw Creek Preserve State Park. It is nice to find these parks, which are new to us. Florida as a lot of nature preserves, state parks and local parks. The 1005 acre park is located in Bunnell, Flagler County.
The park has a 1.5 mile round-trip boardwalk and also has a boat launch.
It was a cloudy day and some rain the morning we were there. The scenery is beautiful, even with the rain drops. There are spurs off the main boardwalk that take you to views of the creek. The birds we saw were mostly waders and very shy, they flew off as soon as they noticed us.
Two birds hung around for a photo op, the Limpkin and the Wood Stork. Other birds seen were the Great Blue Heron, Great Egret and a Little Blue Heron. Yes, people there are trash cans for your trash. Please use them.
A view of the Haw Creek.
The boardwalk views remind me of our other park visits in Florida like Lettuce Lake and the Hillsborough River State Park.
The boardwalk goes by Cypress trees, tall Palms and lots of Palmetto Palms. I am sure there were lots of alligators there too.
Another look and view from one of the boardwalk spurs, the Haw Creek.
A nearby Limpkin did not seem shy around us, it must have been searching for snails.
The Wood Stork was a little hidden by the tree.
Please check out and visit the following memes and links. I hope to see you there.
