Most of you who read this blog probably know by now that I have a serious love of the Okefenokee Swamp in South Georgia. Not only do I write about it (
Okefenokee Tales), but I also work one day a week in there as a boat guide. I get to meet many people from all over the world. Recently I have met folks from Germany, Colombia, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Japan, and many other parts of the USA. I really enjoy teaching others about the Okefenokee. And yes, all the animals one would encounter on our boat tours or when walking the boardwalks and pathways are WILD, not tame, and should be treated as such.
I thought I would share a few pictures taken today while I was in the swamp. ENJOY! And come visit, you will love it!
