Round Robin Challenge - Wildlife

Gus, the resident gopher tortise at the Loggerhead Marinelife Center, Juno Beach, FLI found this snake underneath one of my orchids when I was removing
the pot to set it out in the rain. Needless to say, I wasn't expecting
to see anything when I lifted the inner pot let alone a snake!
A friend then threw it out in the common area between our houses.
Common black snake but it was inside my lanai!

These next two photos should be reversed ... if you notice in the
bottom photo this otter is swimming towards the boat, climbs up
into it and when he gets there he knows exactly where the
baitwell is because he found he found his dinner
and didn't have to chase after it!
