Florida’s 548 oldfield mouse records come almost entirely from GBIF, with just 23 from iNaturalist, so this is large-scale survey data rather than casual sightings. Several pale beach mouse subspecies exist only on specific stretches of Florida’s coastal dunes and carry federal protection, though the records here cover the species as a whole.
January is the clear peak month, with 220 records, more than double November’s 94, the next-highest. Walton County holds 238 of the 548 records and Okaloosa 128, and Gulf Islands National Seashore leads the named sites with 132, so the record leans heavily on the western Panhandle.
