Now one unfortunate fact that I have highlighted in the photos. ... a tale of two species:
The native Anhinga is sharing the canal bank with the non-native / invasive green iguana. CLICK HERE to read the FWC page on the invasive green iguana.
"Green iguanas can cause damage to residential and commercial landscape vegetation, and are often considered a nuisance by property owners," the FWC wrote. "Some green iguanas cause damage to infrastructure by digging burrows that erode and collapse sidewalks, foundations, seawalls, berms and canal banks." CLICK HEREMore information about the Anhinga can be found on the National Park Service website - Anhinga: Species Profile.
