Event Description

This tour is SOLD OUT. 

The Lake George Conservation Area protects more than half of the eastern shore of Lake George and its associated watershed that flows into the lake. Adjacent to the property purchased in partnership with Volusia County, the conservation area also protect a wildlife corridor of more than 20 miles along Lake George and the St. Johns River. The property is primarily composed of mixed hardwood swamp and pine flatwoods. One of the special highlights of this property is its high concentration of eagles’ nests. When it was purchased, this area boasted the highest concentration of bald eagles outside of Alaska. Eagles made their nests primarily in large old pine trees that resided as single trees in the wetlands throughout the property. They are now nesting in trees that were planted outside the wetlands. Join Volusia County Environmental Specialist, Trey Hannah and Senior Curator of Education and History Zach Zacharias for this unique excursion.
