Welcome to the Ocala National Forest! We hope you enjoy this hummingbird geo-art, brought to you for Finder’s Fest 2017, by the Forest Minions.

 

I’m one of the most common wintering ducks in Florida.  I have a distinctive strike across my beak, but my name comes from the ring on my neck.  Unless you’re in great light, you won’t see the ring on my neck in the field.
