Our rescued snake count is up to 46….including three boas, one coral snake, one hog-nose viper and one vine snake. It’s always better to be safe and call for a snake relocation even if the snake is non-venomous. Our calls usually come from our surrounding neighbors and neighborhood. The boa pictured was relocated to our [...]

Around our own garden we see a variety of wildlife, especially insects, that seem impossible to describe. Here is a stunning blue fly that we found. It’s real - we didn’t paint it, although it looks like it! We set it on a loofah sponge grown from our own garden for this photo opportunity.

The photo below is of a canopy anole (Norops lemurinus) that was found in [...]
This photo shows a frog that was found near the small constructed pond in C & J gardens. Numerous frog species can be heard during the night at our pond in Playa Chiquita.
We see a fascinating daily display from the insect world, just in and around our neighborhood. A wide variety of insects and invertebrates inspire exhibitions in mimicry, defense and color. It’s safe to look, but don’t touch - especially the catepillars!

Most of the time we can’t see the frogs that are vocalizing, but we enjoy listening to them.
