I know when I say 'swamp' images of a bog with stagnant water might come to mind. But swamps are living things with plants and birds galore! (and turtles and frogs!)
And always changing!
The water level does go up and down according to the rains and the weather.
So it is always interesting to see how different they can look even from one week to the next.
You can see by the photo of the trail that things have greened up overnight here in North Central Florida. It's our dry season but it has been very warm this week and trees and plants have fully leafed out.
Even the green in the water is plants that are alive and well....just like this alligator.
We were in Blue Run Park for this hike and the Blue Irises are blooming all along the river!
Lots of pretty wildflowers!
The clam shells were empty
and someone got back to the car with only one shoe!
But for us, the hike was a success!
Look at the beauty in nature! It never disappoints!
I'm joining Angie for Mosaic Monday HERE .
