This. Nature is resilient. Hug your neighbors. Offer a helping hand. Yes. I am not there but all those I LOVE are. Hugs are needed. To people, plants and more. 🫶Tracie G

HEADS UP! If you're noticing a lot of brown trees across Florida, that's not Fall Foliage. Hurricane Milton caused a lot of local trees to be "in shock"...battered by strong wind or submerged in salt water from storm surge. That stress causes the leaves to fall or turn brown. Some of them are going to end up dying, but a lot of them will not. Before you attempt to cut them down, give them some time, water, sunlight and a fighting chance to survive. 🍂🌳

Hide from the Wind.
Run from the water.

Be safe.

There is a bit more they forgot to mention. If you know you know. 😂🫶

Wow Nature!!!

When male and female anglerfish mate, their reproductive process is highly unusual and adapted to the unique conditions of the deep sea. In this vast and dark environment, where encounters between potential mates are rare, the mating strategy of anglerfish involves a dramatic physiological transformation. The male anglerfish, upon finding a female, latches onto her with his teeth and becomes permanently attached.

Once the male anglerfish has attached to the female, a process of fusion begins. Over time, the male's body physically melds with the female’s. His eyes and internal organs degenerate and vanish, leaving him with only the essential reproductive tissues. The male's circulatory system also merges with that of the female, creating a shared bloodstream. This fusion allows the male to rely entirely on the female for nourishment and oxygen, while he provides s***m for fertilization.

This extreme form of symbiosis ensures that both fish are able to reproduce successfully despite the sparse population densities in the deep sea. The male's complete integration into the female's body provides a continuous supply of s***m whenever needed, which is critical for successful reproduction in the challenging conditions of their environment. This adaptation highlights the unique and often extreme evolutionary strategies that species employ to thrive in the harshest habitats on Earth.

🫶 love you Sylvia A. Earle.

I've had a chance to live underwater 10 times now in various underwater laboratories and to use more than 30 different kinds of submarines, thousands of hours seeing the ocean from the inside out and realizing this is not just rocks and water; this is alive. It's a soup, like minestrone, but all the little pieces are alive.

Teaching kiddos to snorkel and save our seas??? I feel complete. Thank you TanMan Charters FL for including me on this adventure. I love ya Kristina and Patrick. Thank you. Through and through. 🫶🫶🧜‍♀️🧿
