It connects those habitats with the plants and animals that live in them, naming species such as chicken turtles, osprey, bass, conchs, and cordgrass. Food chains and the interdependence of species provide a wider ecological frame for the guide’s range of environments.

Introduces readers to the trees and plants, insects, mammals, reptiles, and other species that live in Florida's unique water ecosystems, including chicken turtle, barking treefrogs, osprey, herons, bass, crayfish, conchs, cordgrass, and railroad vine. Discusses the food chain and the interconnectedness of all species.
