FLORIDA — A woman in Florida got an unusual visitor in her backyard during Hurricane Dorian.<br /><br />The Miami Herald reports that while holed up in her Palm City home during Hurricane Dorian, Corrine Hogan heard splashing noises in her yard and was afraid a gator had come in with the very high tide.<br /><br />Peeking out, she saw that she definitely had a visitor, and soon found out it wasn't a vicious gator, but an adorable manatee.<br /><br />In a video posted to Facebook, the top of the sea cow can be seen as it moves slowly through the grass.<br /><br />Turns out the big girl had taken advantage of rising waters to grab a meal, happily munching on the grass for half an hour before swimming back out toward the St. Lucie river.<br /><br />It was a win-win situation for both the manatee and Hogan, who was pretty ecstatic that her grass got mowed.
