Flamingo Gardens in Davie is a historic 60-acre non-profit botanical garden and Everglades wildlife sanctuary. They care for permanently injured, orphaned, and non-releasable native Florida wildlife.

I walked the grounds, visited the free-flight aviary where you can hand-feed native birds, saw the free-roaming peacocks, and stopped by the 1933 historic Wray Home Museum. At Flamingo Pond, I hand-fed Caribbean flamingos.
