The Apalachicola National Estuarine Research Reserve said 735 people turned out Friday for the event which draws attention to the importance of the water and environment in estuaries that are home to an abundance of Florida’s birds, wildlife and fish.
The event also had nearly 130 volunteers and staff to help out at the event.
The Apalachicola estuary is one of the most productive and pristine estuarine systems in the northern hemisphere.
The Estuary Day celebration lets people see some of the birds and animals our area and has games, touch tanks, and other activities for children.
