These were observed in the parking lot outside Publix. I wonder if this is the same as in UK where people are painting them? They were not captive but someone had clearly painted them. See: https://www.audubon.org/news/why-are-some-englands-pigeons-pink

Clearly about to shed. One can identify this as a venomous snake by means of its hood, its aposematic colouration, and its fangs (not shown). Although it’s not always the case, bright colouration can be an indicator of danger, and it’s always best to air on the side of caution.

ID is a guess
Found underneath the bark of a section of cut South Florida Slash Pine... I'm not sure why the tree was cut down (there are only four or five others at this park). I decided I might as well take advantage and see what lives under the bark but some of these organisms may have just made the tree their home after it was cut down (new guinea flatworm, rolly pollies, brahminy blind snake for example). I'm sure many, like the termites and barklice, naturally use the tree as a home.
