‘Special’ Everglades Trip Now a Regularly Scheduled BCJ Itinerary
by BCJ Staff
It was so good we’ve decided to keep it! It was so good we’ve decided to keep it!
Birds & Wildlife of the Everglades, once a ‘Special’ one-time Backcountry Journeys photography tour to Florida, will soon take its place in our Trips Calendar alongside our other regularly scheduled photography tours.
When we announced this trip, back in November 2020, we said to “buckle up for a seemingly never-ending array of birds and toothy critters while on this six-day tour,” and the proof was in the proverbial pudding this past February as two separate Backcountry Journeys groups saw all the action in person! Get a feel for how things went by reading guide Russell Graves’ account of each adventure here & here.
Everglades National Park protects an unparalleled landscape that provides important habitats for numerous rare and endangered species. Adventures to Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge proved of great success, as well! Ding Darling consists of over 6,400 acres of mangrove forest, submerged seagrass beds, cordgrass marshes, and West Indian hardwood hammocks, all idyllic habitats.
Crowded wetlands featuring literally thousands of critters offered photographic opportunities for Manatee, Roseate Spoonbill, Teal, Anhinga, White pelican, Green heron, Osprey, Alligator, Ibis, Blue heron, Swallow-tailed kite, Everglades raccoon, among so many others. The action was truly non-stop!
Short walks, carefully selected roadside stops, combined with three privately chartered boat tours position photographers deep inside the Everglades region, offering up-close-and-personal looks at all of the life that calls this area home.
Backcountry Journeys was thrilled to have introduced ourselves to the ‘Sunshine State’ this past February. And now we’ll be headed back, again and again, as this trip itinerary will now be a regularly scheduled BCJ Tour.
