This is a sign near the enterence to the Rosemary Scrub Natural Area near Lake Worth, Florida. I quote from this sign several places in this blog entry.The 14-acre Rosemary Scrub natural Area is a small piece of what was once a large area of scrub habitat located between Lake Worth and an inland lake/marsh system comprised of
Lake Osborne and the former Lake Webster.
It was relatively unaffected by human activity throughout the early 1900s. In the 1930s, construction of the E-4 Canal one-half mile to the west drained Lake Webster and lowered water levels in Lake Osborne.
