Wildlife

Egrets  Opens in new window

 

As in any natural area, many different kinds of creatures live, nest, feed, and find safety in the Greenway.


Depending on the season and time of day, you may see a river otter, alligator, or birds such as the great blue heron, egrets, anhinga, bald eagle, osprey, roseate spoonbill, and more.


Warning

 
Wild animals may react defensively or simply take flight if approached too closely.  If you are lucky enough to observe a wild animal in its natural environment, enjoy it from a safe distance.


While on the Greenway, 

please remain on the trails at all times. 

Note the “Wildlife Sanctuary” signs that caution not to approach or feed the alligators, and be on the lookout for various kinds of snakes.
