The final day

Babcock/Webb Wildlife Management Area is a location you might never hear of just because those who know about it want to keep it a secret. Today was my first visit and I'm sure it will be repeated. If super heroes are known to travel in fours, the super heros of this park would surely be Sandhill Crane, Red-cockaded Woodpecker, Brown-headed Nuthatch, and Swallow-tail Kite. This was definitely a great way to finish off my vacation.


Red-cockaded Woodpecker

Most of the park is drivable on dirt roads where you may need to wait for a clearing to pass the cars coming in the opposite direction. The visitable section of this 79,013 acre park is mostly slash pine with some flooded meadows mixed in. Rather than telling you about it. Here are some pictures and the list.
