The new management plan for Babcock Ranch (remember Jeb’s “biggest conservation purchase ever,” just a couple of years ago?) is now available online. This is a lovely site over on the west coast of Florida, which we’ve visited from time to time. Birding on site and in the area is pretty good, but really requires more of an early start than us eastcoasters can manage, unless we were to do an overnight…

General information about the preserve itself is also available, if you don’t feel like slogging through the management plan.
