On the same land as the Kennedy Space Center and the historic launch pads from the 1960s and still in use today, off the end of the enormous space shuttle landing strip, is a wildlife drive that I thought was common knowledge in the area. Turns out it isn’t, despite the enormous increases in traffic.
However, Black Point Wildlife Drive isn’t the only road through the marshes. As I’ve become more familiar with the area (and the behavior of alligators!) I’ve ventured further afield, turning onto narrow roads often unmarked and not as initially inviting as the well-marked route of Black Point.
Over the past few years, I’ve collected a number of photos of birds who nest and feed in the area. For a separate project, I’ve been reviewing, editing and grouping these photos together for print selection. So let’s consider this post a virtual contact sheet for review.
If you’ve got questions or comments, send me a message. I love sharing what I know about this remote area that’s a mere 5 minutes from town.
