We just went on an airboat ride in Florida at the start of the Everglades. I am not finding a kit for a swampy nature. Am I missing one? If not, can someone make one?
 
There isn't one yet, although I've been begging Olivia to make me one for a while.

Where did you go on your ride? And did you get to see a lot of gators?
 
as a Florida native, I would LOVE this, too! Regular nature kits of course work, but it would be super cool to have things for a FLorida nature kit instead of more touristy. We have so much more than palm trees heheh.
 
Back in september 2024 I already made a request for a kit like this, including gators and airboats. As part of a challenge that month I made this post, including this moodboard:

Ugh, someone make a kit for this! We clearly need it.

Jacinda, I have many of those kits, I might have to just use one but I would really love one that fits better.

We went to Boggy Creek Adventure Park and we saw so many alligators. Seriously I think they were even shocked by how many we saw. Plus lots of birds and a big turtle.

So glad you saw so many gators! :D I just added them to the list of places I want to go on an airboat ride.

Agreed, I'd love to see something geared toward Old Florida, Spanish Moss, Airboats, crab traps, Fishing & Shrimp boats, things you'd see in these coastal towns.

this sounds like a kit idea for flergs and her "adventure" series :)

For sure!

So many ideas! It would be a fun one to have.

Snakes, gators, Florida panthers, Swamp Buggies. mosquitos, gator wresting big herons, marsh.

You could add so many other things.
Fresh water springs, manatees, fiddler crabs, sawgrass, swamps, cane poles, channel markers, sunsets, so many things. LOL! This could be a series in itself!

The Old Coast
Swamps

I did not grow up on the white pretty sandy beaches of Florida. Still beautiful, but completely different vibe.

Yes please! All the manatees.

Also sandy scrubs and scrub jays
 
these are fun for when you have a kit you'd like to use :)

Fingers crossed! Sounds like lots could use this kit. The Spanish moss was so gorgeous, I couldn't get over it.
 
Thought I'd include my layout. :)

Thanks @flergs, also for using pretty much the colors and moodboard I had put together back in 2024.
I really love that airboat, the white heron and other swampy bits. For now I have put the kit/bundle on my wishlist, but I'm sure it will end in my cart one day (soon).

Thank you! I hope I covered most of everything, it could be so massive so I had to scale back. I really loved making it & researching how amazing the Everglades are.

It really turned out lovely Megs! I spent almost every summer in the Everglades (Everglades City/Chokoloskee Island) with my grandparents, and I think you captured this part of the state perfectly!
 
I LOVE this collection. I don't have Everglades photos but I used it out of the box. I will be using it again and again and again.
