Had a nice day in the Upper and Middle Keys. I came down to give a talk to the Garden Club of the Upper Keys in Tavernier at 11AM and spent the rest of the day bioblitzing a few spots. More info about GCUP here: https://gardenclubupperkeys.org/

Drama. These guys all normally get along pretty well, but here a squirrel decided to start something and nearly got kicked in the head as reward. Moments later they were back to munching sunflower seeds side-by-side again.

Observation is for the creepy crawlies all over this gator's mouth. (But take a nice look at those pearly-white teeth while you're at it!)

African Clawed Frog (Xenopus laevis)Observer
stevecollinsDescription
I had never seen a clawed frog larger than a couple inches. This monster was approaching 6 inches. I suspected it was a clawed frog at the time, but I really didn't know because of the size. In hindsight, I probably should have brought it home to live in an aquarium. It may have grown so large by feeding on the other amphibians in this playa.

They look like Porcellio but are universally much tinier, as evidenced by comparing them with the neighboring Myosotella snails.

Canadian Toad (Anaxyrus hemiophrys)Observer
rileywalshDescription
Found this specimen a while back and thought it looked really odd for A. americanus (Hence why I photographed it). Coming back to it now with a bit more knowledge I can see it shows structural characteristics more like the Canadian Toad--Two closely-raised ridges between the eyes forming a blunt crest. The wart and colour patterning also look different and give off a slightly different impression.
That being said, I still have little-familiarity with this species. Plus these aren't known from here in Ontario. Looking forward to any thoughts and input

Exciting stuff! Two adults and a subadult tightly rolled up in duff under a stone, all three of whom refused to uncoil for me. A nearby board yielded a third adult who was kind enough to move around a bit.
