Seen while completing plant monitoring with Steve Woodmansee in the Hole-in-the-Donut, Restoration Area 2014 in Everglades National Park.
Video showing one of the monitoring plots in Eleocharis marsh: https://youtube.com/shorts/QgdRVJqydPk?feature=share
I worked in the Hole-in-the-Donut on the 27th and 28th and decided to stay in the park overnight so I could blacklight and explore LPK a bit before our second workday.

Came out to try to get some macro video but it was way too shaky. I did take some photos too and the highlight was seeing a honeybee taken by an ambush bug with tons of freeloader flies on it. All of my observations from this spot from about an hour of looking around: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?on=2022-10-06&place_id=any&user_id=joemdo&verifiable=any

Relatively new garden area focused on pine rockland native plants! It is constantly being expanded by the hardworking and nature-conscious folks at Kendall Indian Hammocks! I met Jorge Rodriguez, PROS Stewardship Area Manager, and he told me about the amazing work being done at this fantastic park. Nice meeting you, Jorge!
There was a lot of insect activity here, including dozens of dragonflies nabbing winged ants overhead (didn't get any pics of the dragonflies but there were several species including darners and skimmers). I spent a lot of time looking at the pineland croton flowers, beautyberry, and all of the other plants, trying to get a good snapshot of all the bugs. The milkweed assassin bugs were having a field day eating all kinds of insects. Lots of weevils around along with some tiny wasps that were common on the pineland croton.
