Wildlife in The Villages -- alligators, snakes, otters, eagles, owls, interactions
 
Interested in seeing what kind of wildlife that we have right here in The Villages? I have taken hundreds of videos of alligators, snakes, otters, eagles, owls, turtles, and more, including the behaviors and interactions among them. I have just created a YouTube channel containing all my videos of what I've seen here over these past 5 years. Here is the link to my wildlife videos: Wildlife in The Villages - YouTube

Do you have any pictures of foxes. I've seen one near my back yard.

Great videos and the little hidden gem: otter scat. Makes me now wonder what does an alligator's poop look like?

You are missing a lot of land animals. Check Ring doorbell footages. I am a walker/jogger and see bobcats, coyotes, foxes, and a few bunnies and squirrels. A few eagles have landed 50 to 60 feet away. Humbling. This place is a hoppin.

Our neighbors camera catches Opossum, Raccoons, Coyotes, Foxes and Bobcats all the time. We live close to the Evanspraire Preserve.

Thank you so much for posting; just one question, where is that spring? We love seeing wildlife, and that looks like a great place to watch the wild world go by.

The Fenney spring nature boardwalk is just off to the side of the Fenney rec center. It opens at 7:00 a.m. and stays open until dusk. It is a shaded boardwalk that is only a quarter of a mile around.
