@Gmangrove @fawda123 You are going to hate me when I say this, but can we make the HMPU section where you outline the important targets more visual? Maybe instead of the bullet, we can develop an infographic to represent the different habitats and targets? Maybe we could just make the page more visual by added a before and after pic of the Rock Ponds so folks can see the vastness of the project.

@sscolaro I agree that this would a nice addition. Maybe easiest thing to do for now is to add some pics of the Rock Ponds. @Gmangrove or @Tbep-Joe, do we have any good before/after pics for this? An infographic would be nice, but I'm probably not the right one to take the lead on that.

[Gmangrove]

To get to @sscolaro 's thought about the 'vastness', maybe a couple of pics from google earth, ca 2010 and now (attached quick examples) - Caption something along the lines of "The Rock Ponds Restoration Project created or restored 1,043 acres of habitat, including mangroves, salt marshes, and coastal uplands. The Southwest Florida Water Management District led the effort, and multiple other organizations including TBEP were significant contributors. Pictures are pre-restoration (2010, left) and post-restoration (2021, right)."

?

And I'll try to hunt up some really good on the ground before/after pics, maybe the Safety Harbor project

@Gmangrove I think just a good habitat restoration picture would be adequate for now. I think it just needs more visuals ;)

[Gmangrove]

Maybe too low-res, but very shortly after planting (with Reddish egret) and then maybe 1-year post planting.

[sscolaro]

What about a pic from the Robinson restoration site or the iconic Rock Ponds one from Unsplash?

@Tbep-Joe Perfect!!
