Water is a central theme in many of the articles in this issue of Panhandle Outdoors. We explore seagrass beds in our estuaries, horseshoe crabs, fish kills in freshwater lakes and ponds, and rainwater harvesting. We also want to encourage you to get outdoors. As motivation, we profile a National Park and announce some upcoming events and a volunteer opportunity. As always, contact your local UF-IFAS Extension Office for more information on any of these topics or anything else you discover during your outdoor adventures.
