The Diminutive One's folks live in the burbs of Miami, with a balcony overlooking a man made lake. So far the turtles have been elusive, and I have yet to see anyone dragged in by a 'gator, but I have seen a duck and pointy looking bird. I've also seen a fella playing keepy uppy with a football, although because he was wearing a 'tea bag' type vest, I thought him unworthy of a snap.
