One aggressive fish lol

John S. Taylor Park

Turkey Creek Sanctuary

mating 6-7 total

single found 1st but never saw it again on this Mistflower; found others always paired so not sure if I have 6 or 7 individuals because I never saw the single again

iNat suggests Zarucco, but the very dark color and bright white out margin on the hindwing makes me consider Funereal, which is much rarer here.

Palm Point Park

This observation was detailed in our 2008 article "An observation of Cymaenes tripunctus in northern Florida, Journal of the Lepidopterists’ Society 62(3): 174-175."

Predator

Pretty sure this is a vagrant from south florida

tried to make this into something else but this seems to fit

Colt Creek State Park under the power line in one small roadside ditch with standing water these tree frogs were packed together on emergent vegetation.

uploading this to be able to refer back to photo as a teaching tool

I genuinely can't believe I took this first picture, absolutely insane how cooperative this little guy was! Found on sea grape, no luck finding any ovipositing individuals

doesn't fit Variegated Skipper

Native; from Colombia to Peru per Wikipedia

Eight Aaron's Skippers and one unknown on Common Milkweed

Going with the suggestion.

Found inspecting the sand for burrows. Lots of Augochlorini around.

On Black Gum.

Saw at least four fairly fresh Funereals on this walk.

I think this is a first FL record
