A ‘big head’ is one of our descriptions alerting each other when we come up on one of these.
The idea is to say it very low, or better yet just mouth the words. If needed we say nothing and just spread our arms out, a description of something big nearby.
Trust me, it works 😃.
A ‘city’ gator enjoying an old wooden ramp.
He is dry, warm, and no one to bother him.
Life is good.
Not yet big enough to be brave, but he is thinking about it. He stayed right there and was not all that concerned.
While walking through a marsh with a photographer friend this local became a little curious.
As we went by he moved out to keep us in sight. At the time I was wondering if he would swim over for a decent action shot.
The action was probably a grand total of 5 steps into the water.
We were just not all that interesting.
How could you go to the Okefenokee Swamp without a few images of Alligators.
Well, I see them all the time, so I thought to add one to a landscape of the swamp canals.
A continuation of a day out where we pretty much found very little wildlife. That is not a usual day, at all.
However, the locals to the rescue.
A walk along a marsh road and dike gave us the usual suspects.
ACE Basin, South Carolina.
This is an unplanned for second in a series.

Just a few feet away from the first Alligator was this one, a bit smaller, but again great light.
There was a time I was better organized. For the most part it’s not a high priority any longer. LOL
A day being thankful for the local Alligators.
Taken on a day when every animal went into hiding. That never happens here.
Well, almost never, and not exactly all the animals.
They never fail me for something to shoot.
There were plenty of the locals to help fill a memory card of photographs.
