Rainbow Springs State Park is a great place to go to enjoy nature. It's the equivalent to a beautiful botanical garden. There are trees, flowers, shady walkways, and lots of waterfalls. There are also plenty of birds!!

A pileated woodpecker
He was really drilling away at the tree!
Red-bellied woodpecker
This looked like a tiny bluejay
There were a bunch of female cardinals on the ground
All the turtles were thermal regulating!
The park is so pretty to just walk around
This is my favorite spot. The water is so clear
you can see the springs bubbling
Many waterfall!
The entire park was decorated for the holidays
Crystal clear water
Swimming area
Here I tried to go all Ansel Adams with these waterfalls.
Ok, so I'm not Ansel Adams - I tried!
