Digital Nature Observatory: La Norte Florida
In 1513, Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León landed and named the territory “La Florida” due to the Easter season and the abundant vegetation. These are some of my recent hiking observations taken in the northern Florida panhandle. This publication will be updated periodically with new entries and information regarding each naturalist observation. Hope you enjoy!
