The first night we were there, after dinner we saw an alligator in a small pool of water behind the restaurant. Jason was intrigued and the gator turned around and looked at us...I said it was time to get in the car. :)
At one of the shopping centers there are four or five different birds. They were loud the night we were there!
When we checked in we were given a brochure on the sea turtles. It informed us to not leave any beach furniture out...this meant we had to take our tent down every day! There was two sea turtle nests marked off near us! We wish we could have actually seen one!
There were birds...pelicans, seagulls, and this little guy! One day we saw an osprey with a fish in its claws. It landed on a tree outside our deck and then ate its fish. Neat to watch!
The sea life was very active! We saw dolphins, fish (one jumped very close to me while in the ocean...not a fan), sea urchins, sea cucumbers, and this hermit crab (too bad he was inside because it was a beautiful shell!). The family we met actually found a sea horse after we had left!
I think Jason wanted to catch an alligator. He even had Raleigh looking for one!
