Cedar Key Isn’t Just About Beautiful Birds

Helical Not too long ago, I went out to Cedar Key in search of white pelicans.

The Bright Sun Brings Out the Shine of these Beautiful Snails

The Bright Sun Brings Out the Shine of These Beautiful Snails shows readers two images of manatee tree snails, a common Florida garden snail. The snail is in the late afternoon sun, which makes the shell shine nicely.

Shiny Snail These little manatee tree snails (Drymaeus dormani) are fairly common around here since they graze on the algae that tends to grow on buildings, decks, fences, trees, and pretty much anything else that is stationary. The humidity and the sun provide great conditions for the growth of this algae, and algae is great for snails. When things get too cool or too dry for these guys, they…
