WHERE RANCH LAND MEETS WET LAND. We were thrilled to kick-off Christina’s residency with Dr. Paul Gray, discussing the importance of ranch land in the context of Central Florida ecosystem, birdwatching and learning more about Lake Okeechobee water management system and the harmful algal bloom caused by excessive nutrients in its waters. Grateful to Dr. Gray, Deborah Mitchell for the introduction, Audubon FL and to our partners, Friends of the Everglades.
