Default Various fauna today, 05/14/2021 around McClure

A few shots of various critters from this morning walk around McClure with a special guest appearance by one of our alligators.

This type of bird is particularly popular in our neighborhood, they have an advantage they don't require much food.

These critters deserve a special place in all Floridians hearts - they eat LOTS of mosquitos
