Man, critters were everywhere.  I didn't even get pics of the Iguanas, Trash Pandas, alligators, and other stuff I couldn't ID, but here are some of the one's I did get my camera out for.
(Not to mention all the Ospreys...  There were a dozen at minimum in every spot I stopped everywhere I went.... I didn't even know there were so many.  One time they looked like crows, 12 flying overhead together, but they were all Ospreys!)





Lots and lots of these.  I counted 8 different individuals.










Locust....



Invasives



Artsy shot with my Mom...



And my absolute most favorite wildlife shot...  We passed this sign...



and 20 yards down the road and we pass this...







He was a big boy too!

One of the most shocking things I saw down here was this though.....



Thanks for taking the journey with me.
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

Gopher tortoises are the best, haha. They're really funny when they get turbocharged on hot days and try to run fast.

That's what this one was doing!  I swear it was the fastest tortoise I've ever seen.  LOL
