𝓕𝓵𝓸𝓻𝓲𝓭𝓪 𝓕𝓵𝓪𝓶𝓲𝓷𝓰𝓸𝓼 on the beach! They are popping up along the Florida Gulf Coast beaches after hurricane Idalia! 🦩🌴🦩🌴

🦩Saw this beauty in the Gulf today and had to pull over and jump in for a picture! She really is a long way from home!

🦩Did you know? Flamingos get their pink color from their food!
✨Flamingos really are what they eat. Many plants produce natural red, yellow or orange pigments, called carotenoids. As a flamingo dines on algae and brine shrimp, its body metabolizes the pigments — turning its feathers pink

🦩Flamingos Symbolize;
Beauty, Balance, Potential & Romance ❤️

Fishing….🎣

We say it all the time when people ask what they might catch in the surf.…”It’s the Gulf of Mexico, you just never know!”

Well, if we did list off fish you might catch, a Goliath Grouper wouldn’t have been on the list.

Meet Parker from Wisconsin, and his new buddy! A 6’3” (roughly 400 #) Goliath Grouper. This dinosaur was caught off the beach, with a droned out sting ray.

Absolutely incredible!

…it’s the Gulf of Mexico, you just never know.
