Florida semi-native here. I've always had a great love for the outdoors and all forms of wildlife although being the adrenaline junkie I am, I have a special fondness for dangerous animals. Alligators and crocodiles just to name a few ;) Being out in nature centers me in this sometimes crazy world. There is nothing like it and I'm lucky to live in a part of the country with such varied wildlife.

Check out my wildlife blog "The Adventurer's Grotto" at markandrewthomas.com/the-adventurers-grotto/ where you can read about my adventures in the field and view some cool behind the scenes videos of some of the pics in my photostream.
