Florida Wildlife 3
More images filmed by me using my
Sony VX1000 digital video camera

		Disney has built a large wilderness trail area in Poinciana, and we have our own pair of Golden eagles which nest in the Nature study Centre just down the road.
Open free at week-ends
Mangrove roots show water fluctuations		Lake Toho is over 20 miles across
		Bobcats, deer, raccoons, buzzards, ospreys, Sand Hill Cranes, turtles, and literally hundreds of wild creatures and migratory birds make for many pleasant outings. Manatees and Dolphins are found in our waterways and if you like fishing, there are almost as many lakes as there are people.
Bobcats are rarely seen these days
Our nearest big stretch is called Lake Tohopikaliga, locally known as Lake Toho.   You can take the airboat ride through the wetlands and watch alligators in the wild. Flocks of widgeon and duck feed along the 10 mile lake and many different types of heron and snake birds patrol the shallows.
