Junonia found on Captiva
Reagan Savage, 11, of Sylvania, Ohio, found a junonia on April 7 at sunset in front of the ‘Tween Waters Island Resort & Spa on Captiva. Carolyn Savage reported that her daughter was swimming and when she exited the water, she looked down and found the shell rolling in the surf. They are long-time vacationers on Sanibel, but they were staying at the ‘Tween Waters this year because it was open. The islands are the family’s happy place and it was Reagan’s 11th trip. Savage added that Reagan loves shelling, so finding a junonia was a big deal for her! “It’s her first junonia find, and I don’t think she’ll ever forget that moment,” she said.
