Ross, the photos are great!
It's so nice to see OB folks meeting in person...and doing something as special as a trip through the Strand!

You know Dave, you may have opened yourself up to more of us Michiganders coming down for a personally guided trip through the strand.... Maybe Sue or Dorothy could come along and keep us all safe from the lions and tigers and Ghosts

Ok...I've finally got my act together on my pics from the trip. I ended up working all day yesterday, hence my delay. Here's what you're seeing:
  1. Epidendrum rigidum
  2. Epidendrum amphistomum closeup aka Dingy-Flowered Star Orchid
  3. Epidendrum nocturnum seed pods
  4. Ghost orchid 1 (Dendrophylax lindenii)
  5. Ghost orchid 2...the big ghost!
  6. Ghost orchid seed pod
  7. Tillandsia fasciculata bloom
  8. Fakahatchee prairie
  9. Prairie wild flower

Enjoy!
