![A Few Photos of Life in the Everglades 07 Shark Valley 12-2018 (47)](http://drfumblefinger.com/wp-content/themes/CleanStyle/scripts/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fdrfumblefinger.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2019%2F02%2F07-Shark-Valley-12-2018-47.jpg&w=566&h=310&zc=1)
The slowly flowing, warm, River of Grass is teaming with life, although at times it’s hard to see it. A recommended place to spot wildlife within Everglades National Park is in Shark Valley. There is a lengthy elevated bike path in the area, which is shared by a tram. You can rent a bike and cycle around, stopping to see the alligators and birds, or you can sit back in the tram and let a biologist/guide educate you about what you’re seeing. Both options are very rewarding. There is no better place to immerse yourself in this UNESCO World Heritage ecosystem.
We visited Shark Valley a few months ago and had a wonderful experience. I previously published a bunch of alligator photos from that visit. Here’s more of what we saw.
