Only for the Hardcore! SFWMD February 19, 2020 Ecological Conditions Report

As I mentioned in a recent blog post, when I read the weekly SFWMD Ecological Report, I “start with the end in mind.” Reading the recommendation at the end of the thirty plus page weekly document  gives me a hook to keep in mind while reading everything else. I read, or at least peruse, this document because I want to know not just about the St Lucie, my hometown, but the entire Everglades System, especially my friends the animals.

This just came out, so I am sharing it now with you! There is a lot of science, but also pictures too! Nonetheless, this post is for the hardcore student of the St Lucie River and Entire Everglades System! Give it a try!
