"Rotenberger has been one of the best areas for snail kite nesting this year," said Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission Snail Kite Conservation Coordinator Tyler Beck. "Droughts aren't great for snail kite nesting, and we had a pretty bad drought last year. We went into this season with much more water. This area has been helped out with some habitat restoration work, a wildfire that we had last year, and then all the rain we had." (Bruce R. Bennett / The Palm Beach Post)
