Sometimes you got to get out of the car and walk when you are in Coconut Grove. There is so much to see that seems hidden was you drive across the city.
Coconut Grove
Tree Tops Park Collection
I gathered a number of photos from a recent visit to Tree Tops park in Davie, Florida.
The park is made up of 243.3 acres that includes 23 acres from restored freshwater marsh with a 1,000-foot boardwalk.

Pickerel Weed (Pontederia cordata)
The nectar of Pickerel weed flowers attracts insects, including bees and butterflies. It grows along many of the fresh water ponds, canals, marshes and across the glades
Deering Estates at Sunrise
A beautiful morning to photograph the sunrise behind the Deering Estate at the lagoon.
Afternoon View at the Deering Estates
I was awestruck when I saw this. I stood under the arch enjoying a cool breeze on the veranda during this hot day. All I could think of, was for how many years has this view been here and how lucky I felt to capture it on this day to share. The wood house was first built in 1900, the other stone building was built around 1922.
