Etoniah Creek State Forest Bugs and other things field trip
October 2014
The weather was perfect for the dozen enthusiastic nature lovers who started our “Bugs and other things” field trip at the Scrub Road entrance to Etoniah Creek State Forest. During a short hike through the scrub, leader Charlie Pederson, with John Masters (both from the Florida Forest Service) showed us all sorts of fascinating insects and Arachnids, many of which had been collected with pitfall traps they had set in the sand two days before. The Blossom Pond trail was also visited, where the group soaked in the flora and fauna of a totally different ecosystem. The two places visited gave us a truly educational experience with not only the dozens of bugs and birds identified, but extensive discussions about a host of native plants as well.
