Looking for an outdoor adventure?
Become a nature detective on a wildlife
safari. It doesn’t require a license, there
is no age restriction, and the cost is
frequently minimal or free.
Watching animals in their native habitat
can be really exciting. Have you ever
spotted a bobcat or a Florida panther
in the wild? Many animals are very shy
and afraid of being seen by you or by a
predator waiting to eat them. Some are
nocturnal and are active only at night.
Animals leave behind clues for us to
discover who they are and what they
were doing. Becoming a nature detective
requires good eyesight to search for these
clues. The easiest clue to find is their track
or footprint. Like your own thumbprint,
each animal leaves behind a distinctive
track in size, shape, and pattern.
Begin your safari by visiting a forest,
Look for tracks in muddy or sandy
soils, especially along a stream or
lake. Mammals, birds, insects, and
snakes leave tracks. Did you know
archaeologists have even uncovered
fossilized dinosaur tracks?
Raccoon track
Once you discover a track, there are
several characteristics to look for. Look
for number of toes, webbing, claw marks,
pattern of movement, and the distance
between the set of tracks.
When a bobcat walks, its tracks are
spaced about ten inches apart, but when
galloping, its tracks are four to eight feet
apart. A snake leaves curved lines as it
moves its body across the soil. Insects
have small legs that leave fine tracings
often in parallel lines. The centipede track
looks like a miniature set of railroad tracks.

seen during the day? Striped Skunks

Clive Pinnock, Okeeheelee Nature Center
With many recent and unusual occurrences
in nature, most of which are being blamed
on global warming, the casual observer
seeing raccoons abroad during daylight
hours might wonder if this is just another
of global warming’s effect. Raccoons, also
called “masked bandits” and “coons,” are
quite widespread as a species. They are
found throughout the United States and,
even though they are well adapted for
survival in completely wild or natural settings
(forests/woods, swamps, mangroves), they
have adjusted to urbanized and rural areas.
As omnivores, the raccoon’s diet consists
of fruits, a variety of animals, including
carrion (dead animals), birds, and eggs.
They typically live in natural tree cavities
large enough to contain them, in trees
themselves (cabbage palms), under raised
structures (buildings), and where entry is
available, in the eves and attics of homes.
Recently, people have reported seeing
unusual sightings and numbers of raccoons
during daylight hours. The answer lies in the
fact that much of the natural habitat of the
raccoon is being destroyed due to excessive
building of human structures which cause
the animals occupying those areas to leave.
Unfortunately, many of these animals are
forced into areas that cannot support their
numbers due to limited food, water supply,
and shelter for raising their offspring and
avoiding predators.
Unable to find enough food at night (their
natural foraging period), they are forced to
extend their search for food into daylight
hours. Hunger also causes the raccoons to
become a bit more aggressive as they forage,
and many, when approached or disturbed
from a food source, will barely walk away.
Many will back away a foot or two, then stand
defiantly in order to return to their meal.
Care must be taken when approaching
these animals, and they should never be
fed intentionally. As hard as that might be to
accept, raccoons can become very aggressive
if people try feeding them. Dog food bowls,
trash cans and other outdoor containers
holding food items must be monitored closely
to avoid becoming the local feeding area
for these and other wild animals. For further
information on the control of raccoons and
other potentially dangerous animals, contact
the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission at (561) 625-5122.
Kristin Williams
The Striped Skunk is about the
size of a small cat, with short legs,
small ears, triangular-shaped head
and a long bushy tail. The Striped
Skunk is easy to recognize by its
black coat with a white stripe that
begins in a “V” near the eyes and
forks into two wide stripes down to
the tail. While this ‘typical skunk’
pattern is the most common,
individual skunks vary widely and
range from all black to all white.
Skunks are most notorious
for their very effective defense
behavior of spraying. In fact, this
defense mechanism is so effective
that skunks are only preyed upon
by large birds of prey, such as the
Great Horned Owl, who seem to
be immune to the smell.
The Striped Skunk is an omnivore,
meaning that it enjoys eating
seasonal fruit, nuts, berries,
vegetation, insects, small
animals, and even carrion. Skunks
are nocturnal and search at a
leisurely pace to find their meals.
Skunks do not hibernate, but can
become inactive and den during
severe weather conditions.
To get up close and personal to
a Striped Skunk, visit George at
Daggerwing Nature Center.

Did you know.... The creation of award-winning Okeeheelee Park North—over 900
acres—is the result of a 33-year reclamation effort by Palm Beach County. At the time it
was acquired, the property had been ravaged by strip mining and its landscape was pitted
and barren. Today, this picturesque regional park includes Okeeheelee Nature Center,
surrounded by 90 acres of sanctuary, a scenic system of lakes, world class competition
water ski course, a 27-hole championship golf course, a dog park, racquet center, athletic
fields, and a BMX track. Recreational opportunities abound, including fishing, canoeing
and kayaking, picnicking, jogging, rollerblading, and unique special events.

School Programs Offer Memorable Experiences
Barbara Serio, Green Cay Nature Center
Green Cay Nature Center strives to provide
all members of the community with
opportunities to experience, study, and
enjoy nature.  As part of our commitment
to promoting the conservation of natural
resources, Green Cay Nature Center offers
a wide variety of educational programs
throughout the year for school and youth
groups, as well as the general public and
other private groups of all ages.
Guiding the educational and recreational
experiences at Green Cay Nature Center is a
core team that includes a center manager,
naturalists, and volunteer environmental
educators. Our staff of Naturalists have
backgrounds in biology, ecology, education,
and geology. They are experienced educators
who excel at introducing children and adults
to the natural world.
Whatever the topic, our naturalists can tailor
a program to meet the needs of any group
or classroom. We can bring our programs to
you or you can come to our Nature Center
and visit our wetlands ecosystem through a
boardwalk tour.
All school group programs are designed
to enhance school curriculum and will be
tailored to your class requirements and
grade level. Programs such as Wetlands,
Did you know…. Bell peppers and
other winter vegetables were once
grown on the site now known as Green
Cay Wetlands and Nature Center.
The 100-acres were transformed from
farmland into the wetlands you now
enjoy—an oasis of green space within
a suburban community—thanks to the
generosity of Ted and Trudy Winsberg,
who farmed the land for more than 40
years, and the cooperative efforts of
Palm Beach County’s Water Utilities and
Parks and Recreation Departments.
Birds, Reptiles & Amphibians, or Insects will
allow students to see live animals up close
and learn about how they interact with their
surrounding environment.
The Green Cay Nature Center owes much
of its success to its volunteers and the
volunteer support we receive in all areas
of our operation. Special event volunteers,
front desk support, and school group
program assistance are just some of the
areas where volunteers are making a
critical difference; they help us to provide
excellent programs, events, and services to
the community while enjoying the beautiful
atmosphere of our Wetlands.
During the 2006/2007 school year, Green
Cay Nature Center was able to provide 72
nature-based school group programs and
field trip opportunities for 2554 students,
and provided outreach school group
programs for 1724 students in Palm Beach
County for a grand total of 4278 students.
We applaud the schools mentioned below
and their teachers for their interest and
support in environmental education for
their students. The following is a list of the

The Custard Apple Nature Trail
Greg Atkinson, Natural Areas Program
The Custard Apple Trail is the first
designated nature trail within the
County Parks system, and its name
derives from the Annonaceae family.
The Pond apple tree which is a member
of this family appears in large quantities
throughout the wetland portion of the
trail. Its fruit is egg-heart-shaped, green
at first, turning pale yellow with brown
spots when ripe. The Trail has been
around since the early 1960s.
In March of 1966, the Audubon Society
of the Everglades received approval from
the Board of County Commissioners to
Did you know.... To ensure that
environmental preservation and
conservation efforts are continued in
the future, Palm Beach County opened
Daggerwing Nature Center, its second
nature facility, on October 5, 1996.
The 4,300-square-foot Nature Center
provides a wide variety of educational
exhibits and programs to foster greater
understanding and appreciation of our
unique local environment and to ensure
that our valuable and irreplaceable
environmental resources are protected
for years to come. Daggerwing is
adjacent to approximately 40 acres of
natural area with a 2,000-foot boardwalk
that leads through a hardwood hammock
containing plants such as ferns, oaks,
red maples, pond apples, cypress, and
strangler figs. The figs are the host
plant of the Ruddy Daggerwing butterfly,
which only live in South Florida, and is
the namesake for the Nature Center.
Currently, construction of an observatory
and a 3,000-square-foot addition to the
Nature Center is underway. It is expected
to be completed in early 2008.
designate the entire southern portion of
John Prince Park a wildlife sanctuary. This
area, which adjoins the Lantana Airport,
includes a marsh and other examples of
native habitat. The County added signs
and shell rock for establishing paths.
In 1974, approximately three acres of the
invasive, non-native Australian pine were
removed and cleared for a native planting
area. This included four hundred young
trees. Many more trees and shrubs have
been planted over the years by volunteer
groups or by the Parks Division of the
County Parks and Recreation Department.
Pond Apple fruit
Throughout the 1980s until the present,
dedicated volunteers have worked with
the Parks Division to maintain the trail.
Over the last several years, both Lake
Worth and Boynton Beach High Schools
have participated in invasive non-native
plant removal and restoration.
Herons, egrets, osprey, Marsh rabbits,
and raccoons are daily visitors to the trail.
Several ecosystems are represented:
along the trail: Hardwood swamp,
Maritime hammock, Pine flatwoods, and
Wet prairie. Tourists and residents of
Palm Beach County can experience the
diverse ecosystems, through a leisurely
walk along the Custard Apple Nature Trail
that would otherwise take days if visited
in its native habitat.
