Mosquito fish! As the peak of the dry season draws near, the mosquito fish (Gambusia) become the definition of concentrated in what little water remains. In this case, its an alligator hole at the center of a cypress dome in Everglades National Park.
Could it really be raining in February down here? No. Read the caption on the next photo to find out what's happening.
Tilapia and Mosquito Fish (Gambusia sp.) Tilapia is a catch-all term for about a hundred different species of cichlids, many of which have been introduced into US waters. These have been purposely introduced into the Wakodahatchee ponds, as they are voracious eaters of algae, duckweed and similar water plants, and do not compete for food with native species. Mosquito fish are the common "minnows" of Southern ponds, streams and canals. Their primary food is mosquito larvae and other tiny aquatic creatures, and they are a major reason why Wakodahatchee can be comfortably visited in the warmer months. Well, except for the "warmer" part.
