Find these guys on the house and lanai screen at night…we call them 'bonzai frogs' because they will jump from roof of house onto the bushes (height of about 10') in a crazy full spread of the legs
Florida Tree Frog
Found this guy at our house…about 2 1/2' diameter….Florida Softshell Turtle. The 'shell' is soft and just like a pliable leather
And least we forget our ocean friends… my wife is a underwater photographer and in the waters at Jupiter we have many Lemon sharks>>

The turtle is very cool!
There a lot of these here at work .... the nests are watched over and protected, after they hatch they weighed and measured, then we can participate in the release into the ocean.
Suggestion....if you just add a little contrast, and then increase the resolution a little, it really makes flowers "pop".
Scroll up/down, and compare these to the originals, you'll see what I mean.
Yes, they do look a lot better. Excuse my ignorance, but what program do you use to do that with? I dont have any special photo software on my computer.

Worst thing we have to worry about here is the occasional mountain lion-- they are scary sounding at night when I'm sitting on the back porch sipping a beer or in the garage detailing. They are also quite rare. This is the 2nd one anyone can remember. One has moved into my neighbor's yard somewhere. Plenty of deer, fox, owls, snails, skunks, lizards, skinks, turtles, toads, frogs, and other miscellaneous wildlife--even the occasional coyote.
My water feature that I built.
A nice little photo I snapped with my phone at the lake house.
Sunset at the lake house.

Great shot of the Mountain Lion, did you take it?
Your little pond and waterfalls are beautiful, but where's the Koi?
I think I see a Mimosa Tree at the lake house, love 'em!

I'd also recommend Picasa Randy.
Once you get used to playing with photo enhancing software, you might want to pick up Paint Shop Pro.
It's inexpensive, and will do everything you'd ever want and more.
Ok, my turn. Here's a huge Gator I probably got too close to, because it turned and was heading toward me when I snapped the shot.
I love this photo from your neck of the woods... makes my coyotes seem like toys.
Going this afternoon to my local sporting goods shop and apply for the Wolf season lottery for this year. Was out at my land yesterday and saw a couple of rather large wolf tracks along the edge of one field. Had one about 1/2 mile away last year that a neighbor saw and tried to get a shot at without success. DNR is targeting a harvest of 250 this year, up 30 from last year. Beautiful creatures but they do decimate the deer population which is still struggling a bit around here.
