ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. --- A Florida woman got an unexpected visitor as a result of the heavy rain on Monday.
A manatee swam into Nancy Smith's yard after the rain caused the tide to rise over a seawall. Smith posted photos of the manatee chowing down on her freshly mowed grass.
"What a delightful sight to see," Smith said in her Instagram post.
Smith is no stranger to manatee's but this is the first time they have taken a swim in her own yard!
