Pictured here is an juvenile Red-Shouldered Hawk, the most vocal American hawk. Commonly found in woodlands near water, it can occasionally be found nesting in suburban areas. Found this one sitting on a fence just outside our bedroom window. Just look at those claws!
Found this large treefrog crawling around on our house after sundown. The Cuban Treefrog is an invasive (non-native) species. It is the largest of all treefrogs in Florida, growing up to 5 inches long. The toepads are much larger than other native treefrogs, which is a key distinguishing characteristic. They will eat insects and spiders, lizards, small snakes, and other native treefrogs.
