Corkscrew Swamp

This was my first time hearing and going to corkscrew swap. While on our way I was informed that the state purchased several acres of land to have as preserved land. The facility was very different compared to others. They actually have a treatment system on their property just a few feet away from the restrooms. This allows them to reuse their water supply. If I remember correctly, once the toilets are flushed the water would go the treatment plant and come so clean that it is considered drink able. As we walked through the sanctuary I saw a red ribbon, I believe it was called a turkey vulture, and a lot of spiders in their webs, big cypress trees that have been there for ages. I also learned about the Plume Birds, and how they were almost extinct due to people wanting their feathers. I enjoyed walking through all those trees, the cypress trees are just huge, I kept hearing about cypress tree and I thought that they were going to look average. I enjoyed the experience and would go again, in hope to see some wildlife, besides spiders.
