Learn MoreMichael’s favorite thing in nature are all the different species of animals. He has a true love for any living thing on our planet. When we are exploring new places, like our favorite wildlife drive here in central Florida, he wants to know what each animal is. He also enjoys taking pictures as we explore.
Michael’s favorite animal is an axolotl! He thinks they are one of the most unique animals on the planet, and has spent time learning about them. He even purchased a book from the book fair (with his own money) all about axolotls. He loves their little smiles and their cool colors. He also thinks it’s amazing that they are in Minecraft!
Michael’s favorite outdoor activity would be animal sightings and swimming! Here in Florida we have so many natural springs where the swimming is amazing, and spotting manatees is always a great time!
