This lake was the first carved out of Okeeheelee after the county took ownership of the land. In its prior life, it was a stand of melaleuca trees, an invasive imported from Australia. Now, it's a magnet for variety of birds and other wildlife. Wild flowers, including coreopsis, duck potato, carnivorous yellow bladderworts, pale meadowbeauty and water pimpernel have been spotted along its shores — Photo by David Sedore
