The 5th annual Lake Apopka Wildlife Festival and Birdapalooza is Saturday.
The event is taking place as the lake undergoes a multi-million-dollar restoration aimed at transforming it from one of the state's most polluted to one of the best for bird-watching.
90.7 environmental reporter Amy Green talked with Jim Thomas of the Friends of Lake Apopka about the rebounding 50-square-mile lake, one of the state's largest.
