Hi! My name is Ray. I am the Park Ranger at Tall Cypress Natural Area. I am cordially inviting you all to come out and visit this wonderful and relaxing area on a .4 stroll along a boardwalk through the Tall Cypress. The park is open from sunup until sundown and you can learn about the history, vegetation and inhabitants of the Tall Cypress Natural Area.
Botanical diversity abounds in the 66-acre Tall Cypress Natural Area, protected thanks to the efforts of Coral Springs High School students in the 1980s. Like its surroundings, it was planned to be yet another residential and commercial development. Students of the nearby school rallied to “Save What’s Left.”
The country purchased 30 acres from the developer to join with 36 acres the city of Coral Springs already owned. Both city and county jointly manage this preserve.
You might get to see some of my friends. Jay has been spotted on numerous occasions this past week.
Sometimes you can spot him fighting Ruby for the morning worms.
And if you are very quiet and real patient, you may even spot Ginger hooting around.
Thomas has been seen on the outskirts chewing up some vegetation and sunbathing during the hot summer months. Anyway head on over, we'll be waiting for ya.
When you finish the adventure lab, don't leave without searching for the final hide on your way out.
