The Cypress swamps are a marvelous place in the Everglades, full of Life and a really pleasant place to spend time.
The name Everglades has always been associated with birds. The warm, shallow, and vast River of Grass has attracted all types of birds to this region for thousands of years. In the 1800s, the well-known naturalist and artist, John James Audubon, wrote during a visit to south Florida:
"We observed great flocks of wading birds flying overhead toward their evening roosts .... They appeared in such numbers to actually block out the light from the sun for some time."
In Everglades National Park, more than 360 different species of birds have been sighted.
