Last night we were watching this alligator feeding in the marsh. Periodically it would lunge out and capture a large pocket of water in it’s mouth that the gator hoped would be full of small fish.

This would create a huge splash and often the gator could be seen gulping afterwards which meant it was successful on that attempt.

From the amount of fish we could see swirling and jumping all around it was clear that the alligator had plenty to eat, and it was taking advantage of the seafood menu!
