Birding at Starke Lake
Although The Big Year (2011) is one of my favorite comedies, I do not consider myself a birder (maybe somewhat of a birdwatching enthusiast, if you will). However, one of our favorite places to go birdwatching is Starke Lake in Ocoee. For a small lake, you can actually spot quite a diverse selection of bird species. Check it out!
Hiking Lake May Reserve
I enjoy hiking Lake May Reserve in Eustis because it offers some rare elevation, a scenic path around the lake and a cool red barn that provides a good subject for amateur photographers like me. I never see too much wildlife here except for numerous butterflies. However, today I did view a black racer sunning directly on the trail. Cool spot!
