Spring was dry, with Florida in a bad drought and numerous wildfires daily. Then, like a switch was flipped, the thunderstorms began to roll in every day. The plants came to life, the swamps filled up, and mushrooms popped up everywhere! Here is a collection of photos I took around Central Florida in June.
One of my favorite flowers, the native Tarflower appeared...
I spotted a Grizzled Mantis...
Little Big Econ State Forest...
Lake Harney Wilderness Area...
Orlando Wetlands...
Beautiful summertime!
