I went to Bear Island this past weekend, at the northern end of Turner River Rd. in Big Cypress National Preserve. Do any nature enthusiasts head up this way? It seemed to be mainly off-road vehicle people, and a few fishermen (and women).

The land up there is absolutely beautiful: wide-open prairies and pine forests. Bird life is abundant. The campground attendant also told me there were a lot of deer and panthers in the area too, but unfortunately I didn't see any. I keep hoping to spot a panther someday.
