Jonathan Dickinson State Park

This state park has a variety of endangered habitats from Scrub to Pine flatwoods.  We went canoeing on the Loxahatchee River and we saw an oak toad- (Bufo quercicus), and a gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus), the latter attempted to ram us in attempts to defend its burrow-we will try to put this movie on the web
