I was in a different preserve than my usual one. There's a special spot in this preserve that's a cypress swamp full of native tillandsias (bromeliads) that I go check on every so often. There are also some Tampa Butterfly orchids growing on the trees that I check on as well. I usually don't see too many butterflies in there, but I did once see a zebra swallowtail puddling here. Here's what the area looks like. I'm standing in what is normally the creek, but the water levels are down this time of year.
