If you’re looking for wildflowers, get out there. There are so many lovelies blooming right now. These were all in about twenty square feet of space at Babcock Webb.
“The contemplation of nature can free one of the ego – the great troublemaker.”
Frogfruit, also known as Creeping Charlie, Turkey Tangle Fogfruit, Matchhead, Carpetweed, and Capeweed. And we wonder why it’s so hard to remember the names of all of the things. 🙃 This tiny flower makes a great ground-cover. It’s the larval host for the White Peacock and other butterflies. Bees and other pollinators love it.
I recently transplanted all of my orchids and so far they’re all quite happy with that decision. They’re one of the only plants I can’t kill. They appreciate my neglect. 😎 (I always forget to water plants!)
Have you heard a limpkin call? If not, do yourself a favor and go google it. It’s haunting. The fun part is they like to call at night, so it’s even more eerie.
Squirrels are cute. That’s all.
Nothing says spring like the Leavenworth’s Tickseed at Myakka River State Park.
I could hang out with the birds at Myakka State Park every day and never tire of them.
Black skimmers are a funky bird whose lower bill is longer than its top, allowing it to skim the water as it flies, scooping up its fishy prey. One of the main threats to this bird is colony disturbances. Most known colonies are managed by various agencies, helping ensure their success. You can help by watching out for nesting colonies on the beach and speaking up for the birds if you see somebody messing with them or making them fly away. Skimmers’ breeding season starts this month, so let’s give these awesome birds some room to make their next generation.
