| Location: Delray Beach, Florida |
| Description: Every day, the Palm Beach County Water Utilities Department's Southern Region Water Reclaimation Facility pumps approximately two million gallons of highly treated water into the Wakodahatchee Wetlands. By acting as a natural filter for the nutrients that remain, the wetlands work to further clense the water. The Wakodahatchee Wetlands have attracted an abundant variety of wildlife including turtles, frogs, alligators and birds. More than 140 different species of birds have been spotted at the site. These species thrive in the various wetland zones found at Wakodahatchee Wetlands. |
| Personal Notes: Another new find that is an instant favorite. This is another man made wetland that is beneficial for the wildlife. The main reason I made the drive was for the nesting grat blue herons that are quite close to the boardwalk. Other interesting sightings were iguanas, snipe, and gators. |
