Okefenokee Trip Day 2


After leaving Monkey Lake we paddled to Cedar Hammock shelter, where we spent the night.  







We spotted this dear wading through a foot or two of water. It's left ear appears to have been injured and healed again, bent at an odd angle. 

By accident we paddled very close to an american bittern, a very elusive species. 



 Sandhill cranes are all over Okefenokee, they're very impressive birds!



American alligators are a frequent sighting in Okefenokee. 

This was a particularly large individual
 











Unlike Monkey Lake, Cedar Hammock is entirely floating in an open wetland area.
