    They live in the golf course ponds here. They will come out and walk around sometimes, just to let you know they are here.

    When they are active, I stay away from the ponds.

                      Our duck nest is now empty. I think the mother destroyed the eggs before leaving it. I saw small pieces of shell but no larger pieces, and certainly no babies. I guess the eggs were not fertilized. She waited as long as she knew she needed to. They would have hatched by now.

                        @Horace Interesting that they instinct know whether the eggs will be good or not.

                          She didn't know, beyond waiting enough time for them to hatch, which is a month. But she sat on them for a month. She only knew after they didn't hatch.

                                          Only about twice the size of domestic cats, Florida's bobcats may be small in size, but they're big in moxie.

                                          Case in point: A bobcat appears to have killed a massive, 13-foot Burmese python in the Everglades recently and made a meal of it.

                                          The 52-pound male python was a Conservancy of Southwest Florida scout snake nicknamed Loki. Scout snakes have implanted transmitters that are tracked and used to lure breeding females.

                                          The invasive snake was found in a pile of debris, apparently mauled, with its head smashed and slashed, and partially buried for later feeding.
