West Boca Wildlife Photos

Reader and photographer Johnnie Butters sent us several wildlife photos from various locations in West Boca, generally on the canal along 441. He inspired us to take some on a lake in Boca Falls. But his are better so we’ll put his first in this article.

Iguanas in West Boca

We don’t know why iguanas are scared of us, but apparently they are.

Maybe they know they taste just like chicken?
We were at the northeast corner of Glades and 441 (Shadowood) for other reasons when we noticed these friends and decided to do a quick video.
