Everglades National Park and Florida Wildlife Commission to Expand Python Removal Efforts 

Everglades National Park and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) are partnering together to expand efforts to remove Burmese pythons from within the park.

The partnership will expand the park’s Python Removal Authorized Agent Program by allowing paid FWC contractors to remove pythons in Everglades National Park.

The expansion will triple the maximum allowed number of participants in the Park from 40 to 120, allow FWC contractors to use firearms or other humane methods to euthanize pythons in the wild, and qualify additional trained NPS personnel to live capture and turn in pythons.

The purpose of this controlled invasive species management program remains to remove invasive pythons and other invasive species from the wild and advance research in methods to control pythons...

We're driving through Ten Thousand Islands in the Everglades and I'm seeing A LOT of patches of dry sand and dirt where there used to be 1-3 feet of water

Qué hacer en Orlando, Florida

¿Orlando es sólo Disney? ¡Nada más lejos! En este post vamos a ver qué más hacer en la ciudad de Orlando y sus Alrededores

¿Ciudad de Orlando? Disney y sus parques deben ser los destinos que tiene más recomendaciones, reseñas, videos, y sitios dedicados a decirnos cómo aprovechar los parques, que hacer en cada uno, donde alojarse, etc etc. no voy a decirles nada con respecto a eso porque no creo que pueda aportar nada nuevo a todo lo que ya se dijo. Pero si quisiera invitarlos a que aprovechen su estadía y descubran lugares que quizás por ir en plan de parques dejamos pasar. incluso recomiendo extender los días de permanencia para hacer estas visitas o intercalar los parques con estas salidas para hacer más relajada la estadía.

Caitriona Balfe for Everglades (2007)

[internationalpictures]

Florida Everglades Miami was absolutely drenched yesterday with heavy rain that left streets flooded and didn't let up until early evening. The day was essentially a write-off for sightseeing and photography. Today was a different story. Sunny and warm, cloudy but no rain. A good day to go to the Florida Everglades for an airboat ride! Known as the "River of Grass", the Everglades wetlands are actually a very slow-moving river 60 miles wide and 100 miles long. The airboat was great fun and seeing several alligators (big and small) in their natural habitat was a real treat.

Radiant storms gather over the Everglades

Radiant storms gather over the Everglades Sparkling rain-dances of a million hues and cries Vividly painting, arousing the landscape A natural canvas of festive colors A block party for all creatures Heaven and Earth dance Pouring rain, filling cups of leaves With intoxicating raindrops bringing the salt of life Thunder's bass hums fading in the distance  El sol with eyelids half way down calling it a day Keeping things bright enough for us mere mortals  To never stop wondering... The fiesta lasts an instant, it lasts forever Nature may now be the radiant expectant mother Of eternity That's so Miami.
