Off the Sawgrass at University Drive, head north. Make first right turn unto church property under name of Mary Help of Christians. Turn left at green mailbox and park on grass parking island across from white sand pathway. Walk pathway northward and you are entering the hammock. Look for green shade tent with wood floor. Feeding stations north of you, and northwestward. Trails are obvious. Screech owl nest is in the grass area NW of the tent. Look up into cypress tree. Bird comes out about 7:30 PM. Sit down in oak grove with wooden bench about 70 feet away or move bench to comfortable area to watch opening. If you have binocs sit back. Bird watches for about 20 minutes then breaks to trees to start night hunt.
This is a hammock under construction. Enjoy yourself.
