Bird Island is located in Homosassa in Florida, a unique place where native birds like to rest and migrating birds flock for the pleasure of many birdwatchers. It is a tranquil island where recreation combines with natural preservation to enable birds and people to enjoy the island's beauty without imposing on each other's habitats.
The island covers a small area with tiny beaches and large pockets of pretty trees. Local wildlife includes squirrels, small rodents, eagles and manatee. Natural trails let walkers stretch their legs through canopies of sub-tropical foliage, a shady place perhaps to rest and enjoy a picnic.
The island has been protected for a long time and does not allow dogs. Because the eco systems are so fragile, battered from time to time by hurricanes and infringed upon at other times by the spreading pollution of nearby cities, environmentalists have created a paradise that continues to provide refuge for birds.
Bird Island is a treasure amidst the beauty of a charming town. Visited by young and old alike, the island is a fun place for exploring, boating and photography. Some people even like the scenery so much that they set up an easel to paint, forever immortalizing the island's picturesque landscapes.
