"Stroll the wooden boardwalk through a forest of pines and ferns on the Sundew Trail at Big Thicket National Preserve in Texas."
Big Thicket National Preserve "is a transition zone where southeastern swamps, eastern deciduous forests, central plains, pine savannas, and dry sandhills meet. This diverse habitat allows an impressive array of species to coexist," including tiny arachnids like the crab spider.
"Life of all types abounds in the Big Thicket. This national preserve protects the incredible diversity of life found where multiple habitats converge in southeast Texas. Hiking trails and waterways meander through nine different ecosystems, from longleaf pine forests to cypress-lined bayous. It is a place of discovery, a place to wander and explore, a place to marvel at the richness of nature."
