Further down the path you might find baby gators too:
| American Alligator |
This is the big gator at the
Wakodahatchee Wetlands
that lives near the first pavilion on the boardwalk. Sometimes it poses
nicely on the island and displays its teeth to happy visitors and
photographers.
Same picture closer:
Gators can be lurking anywhere, and are often so still that you don't
notice their eyeball peering at you. This alligator is mostly submerged
in the shallows beneath the Pickerelweed:
...and here they are a moment later:
I thought this turtle was going to become an alligator dinner, so I
waited a while, but I guess the gator wasn't hungry because it didn't
move for over an hour. I was hungry, so I gave up and went home to cook
dinner for my hungry family.
