Venice Area Audubon Rookery
Annex Rd, Venice, FL 34292 (941) 861-5000Nesting season is busy but the Rookery has avian visitors year round. Nesting species and others (such as White Ibises and Little Blue Herons) flock in great numbers to the island each evening at sunset to roost safely for the night. Alligators patrol the lake, keeping mammalian predators from preying on the island's birds.
