Ekin Aslan, 12, of Jacksonville, found a junonia on June 18 at the ‘Tween Waters Island Resort & Spa on Captiva. Beyza Aslan reported that the family was shelling when her daughter pulled the beauty out of the water. “She was in waist-deep water and was using her goggles to see the bottom when she spotted her junonia,” she said. “Needless to say, she is beyond excited.” Aslan continued that she and her daughters, Ekin and Erin Aslan, 17, have been vacationing on Captiva for the past three years. “We are shellers and we absolutely love it here,” she added.
