Visit to Gatorland – Best Florida Bird Rookery

Gatorland Visit - 3/7/2023

Some of my favorite photos from our recent visit to Gatorland (https://www.gatorland.com/). Gatorland is a 110-acre theme park and wildlife preserve in Florida, located along South Orange Blossom Trail south of Orlando. In the Spring Gatorland is known for the wide variety of nesting birds in their Breeding Marsh. The marsh is a 10-acre area surrounding a large lake full of alligators. Since the alligators discourage natural predators like Raccoons and others, the bird life in the spring breeding season is amazing!
