The South Florida heat and humidity can be brutal in the summer but this does have one advantage. There are usually much fewer people visiting the Bonnet House, which makes it a lot easier to see the variety of wildlife that resides on the grounds.

Some of the animals that are commonly observed in the Bonnet House gardens include Brazilian squirrel monkeys, green iguanas, Florida Cooter turtles, swans and Japanese Koi goldfish.

If you have the time, I highly recommend taking the museum tour. The house contains an eclectic collection of statues, wood carvings, paintings, architectural elements and artifacts.

During this visit, I captured some short video clips of the Bonnet House tour and a bright green iguana walking. To view it, click on the link below. To download the video, right click and choose "Save Target As" and "Save Link As".
