Florida sits atop a labrynth of limestone with fresh clean water flowing through. Our aquifer. Ocassionally the underground water comes to the surface and flows to the east or west-to the Atlantic or to the Gulf. We call the places the water surfaces "boils", because it looks a bit like water boiling in a pot. Some boils are quite large and form the beginning of a river. All along the river and in some lakes there are little boils. This video shows little boils moving the sand. Little fish-bream and very small bass like to feed around these boils as microscopic fresh water krill are pushed up by the force of the water.
