Central Florida Site Guide

We are proud to announce that the "Central Florida Canoe Creek Road Area Site Guide" is now available. This Site Guide, an e-mailable PDF file, was written by Jim Neiger of Kissimmee, FL. Jim has spent the last three years photographing birds along Canoe Creek Road south of his home. He is out in the field most every day. Nobody knows this bird rich area better than Jim.  Jim has done a superb job. This Site Guide includes detailed maps, species lists, and three great tech tips: handholding the 500mm lens, using Manual mode, and attracting hard-to-photograph songbirds, hawks, and owls with tapes or CDs of their calls. This guide is ideal for folks visiting the Orlando area with a day or two to kill, or folks interested in photographing some of the hard-to-photograph species that are not to be found at the traditional photographic "hotspots".

Here is a list of the areas covered in the guide: Canoe Creek Road, Lake Cypress Road, the Lake Cypress Boat Ramp , the famed Caracara Tree, Joe Overstreet Road, Lake Kissimmee, Overstreet Pond, the Overstreet Boat Ramp Area, the Overstreet Airboat Launch Area, Three Lakes Wildlife Management Area including the Parker Slough Area, the Lake Jackson Canal and Observation Tower, and the Interpretive Trail and Wildlife Viewing Blind, and lastly, one of my very favorite spots, the Lake Marion Boat Ramp Area.
