You never know what you will see at a stormwater treatment area. This location has been known for spotting crested caracara, white-tailed kites and large flocks of wood storks. It is not uncommon to see nearly 65-100 species for the day!

You will need to make your own overnight reservations. Carpooling to Clewiston is recommended and we will carpool to the site from the Best Western. We will be taking more than 10 participants for this field trip. The liability release form must be completed and presented at the admission area.
