You haven't seen anything until you witness the mass (and I mean MASS) staging of PUMAs on Marco Island in late August/early September ~Labor Day. Several years ago, I personally witnessed 100,000+ PUMAs on Marco just before they decided to begin their migration across the Gulf. The noise was deafening! Of course certain "resorts" bowed to the whining of their "guests" that these birds were pooping on their cars so the "resort" had all of the trees cut down that the PUMAS used to roost. Ahh Paradise. . . .
