Eco Pond, Flamingo, Everglades National park, Florida, United States 2002 - bird watching, marina shore, before hurricane Katrina.
One of the perennial destinations for birding in Everglades National Park, Eco Pond sits near the end of the Main Park Road in Flamingo. During the 2005 hurricanes, a wave of salt water washed across the landscape, changing the pond’s salinity, affecting the wildlife living there. This loop still provides excellent birdwatching and wildlife sightings, but birds no longer blot out the sky while they jostle for a roost at dusk.

Video of a Very Pink Eco Pond in Everglades National Park, May 22, 2011
Being on Miami Beach for a conference this weekend, I decided to hop down to Flamingo in Everglades National Park to see what's happened since 2008. I shot this video and wasn't prepared to see a very pink Eco Pond - a place where birds still seem to congregate. If anyone knows why it's pink, please let me know. As always, thanks for watching!
Through the Mangrove Tunnel of Nine-Mile-Pond, Everglades National Park.
Nine-Mile-Pond Canoe Trail is a fun place to paddle, with Mangrove Tunnels, open areas, Mangrove Channels, Hammocks and much more. In summer it is also a great place to paddle because the Mosquito level is generally low on this trail.
Thanks to Everglades Hostel (Florida City) for the canoe rental!

Nine Mile Pond Canoe Trip - Everglades NP, Florida
Relax and enjoy the half-day adventure as we canoe through the Florida Everglades National Park's Nine Mile Pond. We were the first ones out on this bright January morning and we did not see anyone on the five mile trail. The rest of the tourists were all behind us! We had the complete pond and trail system to ourselves; charmed again! It also helped getting up at 4am! We were amazed when we returned to a full parking lot just before noon.

Visiting Everglades, Wetland in Florida, United States
The Everglades (or Pa-hay-okee) are a natural region of tropical wetlands in the southern portion of the U.S. state of Florida, comprising the southern half of a large watershed. The system begins near Orlando with the Kissimmee River, which discharges into the vast but shallow Lake Okeechobee. Water leaving the lake in the wet season forms a slow-moving river 60 miles (97 km) wide and over 100 miles (160 km) long, flowing southward across a limestone shelf to Florida Bay at the southern end of the state. The Everglades experience a wide range of weather patterns, from frequent flooding in the wet season to drought in the dry season. Writer Marjory Stoneman Douglas popularized the term River of Grass to describe the sawgrass marshes, part of a complex system of interdependent ecosystems that include cypress swamps, the estuarine mangrove forests of the Ten Thousand Islands, tropical hardwood hammocks, pine rockland, and the marine environment of Florida Bay.

Description
Everglades National Park
11-22-14: Then we moved on to our main destination: Everglades National Park. This whole area at the end southern tip of Florida was an area I had never been to before even though I had lived in Florida from 1998-2002. I had only been to the northern area with my sisters in 2001. So all of this was pretty new to me.
It was overcast, yet the temperature was pretty good with a breeze. We first hit the Ernest F. Coe Visitor’s Center and then started to check out the various hiking trails and boardwalks at Royal Palm (Anhinga Trail and Gumbo Limbo Trail), Long Pine Key, Pinelands, and Pay-hay-okee Overlook. Since it was getting late in the afternoon, we then headed down to the very end of the road to Eco Pond and Flamingo Visitor’s Center before it closed at 4:30 p.m. We were at the very southern end tip of Florida (not counting the keys). They had a “Mosquito Meter” there with a rating of “Horrible”. The mosquitoes were only bad at the Flamingo area though. And the strong breeze helped keep the mosquitoes away. Then we backtracked to West Lake, which had a wonderful boardwalk through mangroves. Finally, our last stop was Mahogany Hammock.
The sun peaked out at this point and seemed like it was going to get clearer. But… then the rain came back. But at least we got done everything we wanted to get done for the day.
