Limpkins are awesome! About 5 years ago, 4 or so showed up in Bayou Black when it was being overrun with apple snails. 5 years later, I rarely see the pink eggs and limpkins are everywhere. They are absolutely devastating to the snails

Limpkins started showing up in the lower pearl swamps about three years ago. Now they are thick in eastern st Tammany and do seem to be putting a dent in the apple snails but I still see a lot of those pink egg masses. Limpkins are not shy. They let you get pretty close. Glad they are here and hope they really do get these invasive snails under control.
