Lots of small snail on the Oak leaves yesterday. I didn't notice the damage to this one until I was processing the image.
Zerene Stacker 120 subs. Two speed lights - snoot to the right and reflector bowl with grid about 30 degrees off-axis to left. The shell is 2.25 inches in greatest dimension.
We found this beautiful shell several years ago in Myakka State Park, which consists mostly of a freshwater marsh. My semi-educated guess is that this is an Apple Snail shell. The Florida apple snail is 2-3 inches in size, consistent with this specimen of 2.25 inches. There are four exotic species that are highly invasive, and are now widespread throughout freshwater ecosystems in Florida. They were introduced in the 1980s through the aquarium trade.
Wonderful encounter with what i think is a snail-eating snake, please correct me if I’m wrong. It blends in so well…Tortuguero NP, Costa Rica
Juvenile Snail Kite ~ (Rostrhamus sociabilis)
A young Snail Kite comes in for a landing with a good sized Apple Snail in its beak at sunrise. Their long talons on display here make snatching large snails from the water much easier.Lots of Snail Kite photos coming - be warned!
Thanks for visiting!
