Audubon Forest - Marion Bidler Swamp (Harleyville SC)

This is a neat 1-3/4 mile boardwalk through a Cypress & Tupelo marsh.  The end result was thousands of trees, lots of swamp water, a few birds, one alligator, and a den of snakes. I'm going to say Cottonmouth Moccasin but I'm not sure. (I didn't check for a name tag.). This is a virgin stand of trees, the oldest being almost 1,000 years old. We missed the arrival of the Warblers by 1-2 weeks.
