against all odds, life persists.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I will always be in all of the resilience of nature. These animals serve as a reminder that all setbacks, and any challenges are temporary. Other than death, all failure is psychological.

A nursing Harbor Seal pup gets comfortable on the beach. 🦭
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here is a sneak peek of the footage I got of Harbor Seals (Phoca vitulina) in Southern California. Harbor seal pups get their white color from being born prematurely. The white in their fur should have faded before they were born, making this individual pup very young. They only say this color for 2 to 3 weeks as they grow larger. Stay tuned, more coming

Swimming in Florida

This is not something I recommend doing unless you are with a professional but it’s an incredible experience to see and document some of these wild animals in their natural habitat. It is a different world underwater! 🐍🐊🤿

Amazing encounter with dolphins! 🐬
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Recently, I took out my new Jon boat with my @epropulsion Spirit 2 Electric Outboard! I was heading to a different fishing spot when we happened upon the small pod of bottlenose dolphins right at the edge of a channel! I love how quiet the motor was so I didn’t disturb these beautiful animals! I immediately slowed down, but they came in to check us out and followed us for quite a while! Absolutely loved getting out on the water with my new motor, stay tuned for more cool moments on the water!

Mudskippers use modified pectoral fins to walk!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mudskippers can actually spend 90% of their time out of the water! I found these while walking down the beach in the Philippines! I’m not exactly sure what species they are so comment below if you know! Been stuck at the desk lately so I’m reposting some cool stuff from the last year.

where are the rest of his legs?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I saw this beautiful spider beside a river in Thailand. Loving nature is about loving the unloved and appreciating the overlook, regardless of your fears. You can’t pick and choose what to save just because of what you’re afraid of. Been stuck at the desk lately so I’m reposting some cool stuff from last year.

A boring South Florida day 🥱
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A day filming fish (and being interrupted by alligators) and catching an invasive Burmese Python near the Florida Everglades a while back. These pythons are not native to Florida and have proven to be quite detrimental to our native wildlife and ecosystems here in Florida. With @z.hilliker @crewdawg842

These are some of my favorite catches! While my first priority on these shoots is filming, I take every opportunity to do some herping! Which one was the most impressive?
