Lost: Breeds in the Tampa Bay Area
Yesterday around 4:20 p.m., I was loading my car in the Westshore area of the Tampa Bay Area when my binder labeled Breeds slipped from the front seat and vanished between the cushions. It holds dog-breed profiles and a few handwritten notes for our rescue group. I walked the Westshore Plaza area, checked the parking lots, and even the bus stop near the stadium, but nothing turned up. It is not valuable moneywise, but it is full of practical reminders I use every day. I miss it and hope it is found somewhere close to home, maybe tucked under a car or left in a corner of the lot.
lost: belts near Tampa Riverwalk.
I lost my belts while walking the Tampa Riverwalk around 7:30 pm on a Tuesday, heading from Curtis Hixon Park toward the water. I must have dropped them near the benches by the river as I paused to take a sunset photo. One belt is black leather with a brass buckle; the other is a blue fabric belt with a small silver buckle. They’re important for daily outfits and a family heirloom, and I’m anxious about losing them.
Found: DVDs left behind at Curtis Hixon Park
I was strolling along Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park in downtown Tampa last Friday around 6:15 pm when I found a tote stuffed with DVDs. The cases range from a bright action flick to a moody indie, with sun-bleached covers and a few stickers peeling away. It felt like someone had just sat them down during a break, and I pictured the owner scanning the park, hoping someone would find them. I checked nearby benches, the dog-walking path, and the concession stand, but no one claimed them. If these belong to you, I hope the site helps reunite you with your movies.
Found: Passports in Tampa Bay Area
Hi, this is Diego Ramirez. I found a pair of passports on the ground along the Tampa Riverwalk near Curtis Hixon Park last Friday around 6:45 PM. One passport is red and the other blue, both with travel stamps peeking from the sleeves. It looked like someone had been hurrying to collect belongings after a flight delay, and I can imagine the stress of losing official travel documents at a busy time. I kept watch over them and turned them into the downtown lost-and-found, hoping the owner sees this and can reclaim them soon. It felt good to help someone avoid a nightmare moment in the Tampa Bay Area.
Lost Driver's License near Tampa Riverwalk
I realized I dropped my driver's license after leaving the gym around 6:15 PM today along the Tampa Riverwalk near Sparkman Wharf. It was in a black wallet with a blue stripe, and I remember the river lights reflecting off the water as I walked. I’m anxious because I have a flight next week and need the ID for check-in and a rental car. I retraced steps from the Curtis Hixon Park area toward the Riverwalk, near the vendor tents where the street musicians set up, but the card didn’t turn up. Being without it makes the trip feel uncertain, and I’m hoping someone found it and will return it.

Lost organizers in Tampa Bay Area
Last Wednesday at about 6:30 PM I was setting up for a neighborhood meetup in downtown Tampa when I realized my organizers were missing. They were in a blue tote with a zipper, containing three clear binders with bright orange tabs. I last saw them near the entrance to Curtis Hixon Park along the Riverwalk. Those organizers hold notes and schedules for volunteers, and losing them puts our plan at risk for tomorrow. If you found them somewhere around the Riverwalk or Curtis Hixon, they’re in the tote you may have picked up.
FOUND: Holiday decorations in Tampa Bay area
I found a bundle of Holiday Decorations tucked behind a tote on the curb last Friday around 8:15 PM near Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park. The garlands were bright, with red velvet bows and a string of multicolored lights that still flickered when I brushed past. It looked like someone had started their holiday prep and then set things aside in the rush of the evening. I pictured the owner maybe hosting a last-minute gathering, and the scene made me smile and want to help. I left them on the porch steps to keep them safe until they’re claimed, hoping they find their way home soon. If this sounds like yours, I’m glad to help reunite you through the site.
Blue paperback mystery with orange sticker
Found a blue paperback mystery this afternoon around 2:15 pm outside the Starbucks at Hyde Park Village in Tampa. It's a mass-market paperback in decent condition, with a small orange circular sticker on the back cover and a fabric bookmark featuring dolphins tucked between pages 60 and 61. I also found a receipt for a coffee dated last Monday and a pressed lavender stem between the pages. I figured someone might be missing it, so here I am—hope to help reunite it with its reader. If you think it's yours, message me with the cover illustration or the unique sticker.
Green parrot with red tail found near Bayshore
Found a bright green parrot this afternoon around 3pm perched on a lamppost along Bayshore Boulevard, just south of the Davis Islands causeway. It has a vivid red tail, blue-tinted wings, and a small white patch around the eyes. It wears a blue leg band with the number 27; I could read the digits when it hopped onto my hand. It seems healthy and vocal, and I’m keeping it in a portable pet carrier to stay safe. If this is your bird, please share distinguishing details and the leg-band number so we can arrange a meetup near the Westshore area.
Green iguana with orange tail and eye scar
I lost my green iguana, about two feet long from snout to tail, bright lime green with an orange tail and a small pink scar under his left eye. It bolted from his terrarium during a routine cleaning yesterday around 3:15pm, and I couldn't coax him back. I last saw him near Plant Park behind the University of Tampa on N Howard Ave, where the palm trees and shrubs hide him in plain sight. This little guy is a family pet with sentimental value, and I'm really hoping for a safe return.
Blue foldable umbrella with leopard grip
I lost my blue foldable umbrella yesterday around 3pm in the Westshore area, behind the Publix at Westshore Plaza on Westshore Boulevard. It's a compact travel umbrella, about 9 inches folded with a 38-inch arc when opened. The canopy is navy blue, the shaft is black metal, and the grip is a distinctive leopard-print plastic handle. There's a small dent near the tip and a frayed blue strap on the nylon case. It has huge sentimental value—it was a gift from my grandmother who passed away last year, and I really need it back. If anyone found it, I’d be forever grateful to get it back.
Silver ring with sapphire, engraved inside
I lost my silver ring yesterday around 3pm at the Tampa Riverwalk near Curtis Hixon Park. It's a thin sterling silver band, bezel-set with a small oval sapphire on top, about the size of a pea. Inside the band there's a tiny engraving that reads 'PP' and there's a faint dent on the outer edge from a fall last month. It means a lot to me; my grandmother gave it to me and it feels like a piece of home, so I'm really hoping it turns up. If anyone found it, please reach out; I'd be forever grateful.
Red Pearl snare drum with chrome hardware

I lost my red Yamaha 14-inch snare drum yesterday around 3pm, probably somewhere near the Straz Center for the Performing Arts on Channelside Drive in downtown Tampa. It's a matte red shell with chrome hardware, and there’s a small dent on the rim plus a college drumline sticker on the inside hoop. There are light stick marks on the bottom and a coffee ring along the edge from a past gig—these are my 1-2 identifying features.

Vintage enamel pin collection in green pouch
I was wandering along the Tampa Riverwalk near Sparkman Wharf yesterday around 3pm when my vintage enamel pin collection vanished from my shoulder bag. It was inside a small olive-green zippered pouch with my initials ML stitched in the corner; the zipper is a bit frayed. The pins range in size about 1 to 1.5 cm, with a purple dragon pin and a tiny lighthouse pin being the standout pieces; some have a bit of patina. This collection means a lot to me because my grandfather started it and it felt like a little memory box. If anyone picked it up or saw it, I’d really appreciate getting it back—thanks so much.
