This might look lke just another puddle along the trail but it was full of life, a wetland in miniature. Dozens of frogs, including the southern leopard frog shown on the main page, made this place their home. We saw a beautiful green snake slither quickly through here as we approached, too fast for our camera, unfortunately. It's just a sample of what's in the marshes and meadows of Allapattah Flats Wildlife Management Area. This photo was taken in at the height of the dry season. Imagine this puddle looking more like a lake after summer's rains.
