Florida fauna

It was quite the nature visit to Florida, with the aforementioned fire ants, sea gulls (which Mr. was positive that he could catch as he chased them up and down the beaches), crabs (from whose pinchers Mr. was insistent that you needed to guard your nose), and tidepools with cool ocean critters. I got a few photos below. Picking through a treasure trove of shells

Mama, look at this cool shell!

Yep, that's a real alligator with babies in the wild.

And yep, we were this close. Probably a little too close for safety, although Mama alligator seemed pretty chill at the time. While we may not have been the fastest spectators, I figured all we needed was to not be the slowest!
