Field Notes

Habitat:

Wetlands such as swamps, streams, rivers, ponds and lakes.

Notes:

Not really a novel spotting here in South Florida, but I wanted to add it because of the location, since it is the first I've seen in this pond, and this general area in the 10 years I've lived here. Though I'm not surprised at seeing one.
