Orlando's Nature Attraction September 13, 2013

Friday the 13th turned out to be a great day for the wildlife, us included ;-). The Wekiva River showed off her jewels for us... the Anhingas, Great Blue Herons, Sandhill Cranes, Little Blue Herons, Turkeys, Osprey, Vultures and Bald Eagle were out enjoying their time and the reptiles were too. We saw a Gator for a brief moment and the Turtles were sunning on the logs. On the way up to Wilson's Landing a Wood Stork came out to say hello and on the way back the Kingfisher did the same. From the Netherlands to Central Florida, we were grateful to be able to show the Van Rees family a bit of Orlando's nature attraction.

We really enjoyed the kayak tour! It was one of the highlights of our vacation here in Florida. Kenny is a very kind en knowledgeable guide. Thank you for this perfect morning on the Wekiva River. If we are in Florida again we will definitely go for another kayak tour with you.

I added some photo's we took on the tour (more photo's in another mail, because of exceeded limit) and a link to our blog. The blog is in Dutch but you can see some more pictures of the tour and a link to your website.

Kenny Boyd's first link to nature began as a kid growing up and exploring the lands near Jacksonville, FL. He found the lure of these secret spots irresistible and began to strive to inspire others to take a closer look. He graduated from Eustis High School, then served 4 years in the Navy working the flight deck on two Super Carriers, the Constellation and the Nimitz. During his tenure with the Navy, he experienced many of the world’s ports and became certified in Jungle Environmental Survival in the Philippines. He was the Florida off road motorcycle champion and has spent years as an off road guide through the Ocala National Forest and the Central Florida area. He served on the USDA Forest Service, Ocala Access Work Group in 2001 to help protect the precious resources we have available to us within the forest. He is a member of the Audubon Society, Ducks Unlimited, Mt.Dora Chamber of Commerce and is CPR certified. With a knowledge and uncanny intuition of Florida’s wildlife, a self taught birder with an exceptional eye, his knowledge of the wildlife within FL exceeds most expectations. He has a great sense of humor and makes each and every trip an enjoyable one for all involved.

Jenny Boyd is a Florida native. She was born in Eustis, FL where she and her husband Kenny reside now. Her love for the great outdoors started at a very young age. Being concerned that she would waddle down to the lake they grew up on, her sisters taught her to swim when she was an infant. At the age of 5, she went on her first hiking trip, riding on the top of her Dad’s backpack, while her family hiked through the Smokey Mountains. This trip started her curiosity and education of the flora and fauna that exists in the Southeast region and her knowledge continues to grow. She and Kenny hike and camp every chance they get throughout FL and the mountains of NC and TN.
In 2002, Jenny started volunteering at S.A.D.L.E.S. an organization that is committed to helping children of all ages through Equine therapy. This brought her love of the great outdoors and animals together and enabled her to help teach others as well. She is a member of the Audubon Society and Arbor Day Foundation.
Our mission, Jenny says, is to help others experience the peaceful, rejuvenating, fun side of these beautiful backcountry places that exist here in Central Florida. Being outside, with nature, in a peaceful environment, away from the hustle and bustle has a calming effect on people and has been proven to reduce stress. That is what we hope to accomplish. When your customers leave with a huge smile on their face, thanking you for doing something you love to do, it warms your heart.
