Interesting, I see that Florida has lots of wild and naturalized grapes: http://www.eattheweeds.com/vitis-wild-grapes-2/

It looks like a grape to me but I like to take a very close look and compare the leaf shape and colors closely before making an assessment.. Here is a wild muscadine grape for comparison.

Well I'm convinced it's wild grape. After looking at a million pics of grapes wild and otherwise, looks like another food source.

Are there any signs of baby grapes? Our vines up here in MD already have multiple grape clusters forming, so i would think you might see some in Florida.

No, but to be honest, before I had tortoises I considered this a nuisance plant... I kept it... well, stripped to the ground. My how times have changed... lol
