I was thinking about y'all as I was in the EVERGLADES catching fishes in my trap to transplant into my ponds.
I caught a bunch of Mollies and even a Killiefish. (In the bad photo)
But the mist discouraging part was that in one particular area I found hundreds of bunches of invasive Water Lettuce and a certain non native Lillie. Both of which I removed as much as I could collect to place into my ponds (and in garbage bags to be destroyed)
This Florida invasive thing isn't just fish, birds and Reptiles. Our entire ecosystem is changing right in front of our eyes.
This particular area is just north of the south I-75 exit off of US 27 in Southwest Ranches.
I've reported it with pictures to the Florida Fish and Wildlife site.
