Florida Scrub-Jay

Jonathan Dickinson State Park (11,471
acres / 4,642 hectares) contains some of the
most significant and diverse biological communities in southeast Florida. The park offers
a variety of trails to experience these habitats,
including sand pine scrub, flatwoods, wet
prairies and dome swamps. It also includes 9
miles (15 kilometers) of boating
and canoeing along Florida’s first National
Wild & Scenic River, the Loxahatchee.
This mosaic landscape attracts a large variety
of birds. Some are permanent residents and
others are migratory, but all 158 species have
been documented within the park.
