Bull Creek WMA - Cemetary Rd & Loop Rd.
Osceola County, FL

Temps climbed into the upper 80’s with ample sun. Didn’t find the field of Pineland Purple & Liatris till late in the afternoon, but still saw one Palmetto Skipper here. The field of Saw Palmetto and purple flowers was breathtaking for this NJ native!
