Out For An Evening Stroll
This weekend we were a bit surprised to see an alligator climb up out of the marsh pond and take a nice little walk right across a roadway.
The gator headed over to the opposite side where it lumbered down among the rocks and weeds on it’s way to visiting the salt marsh where he was hoping to find a large meal of fresh fish and crabs!
We often see the alligators floating along in the water, but it never fails to amaze us to see one walking on land. It is the closest thing we have to a living dinosaur.




They really are like dinosaurs. That is one BIG guy. Incredible photos!
Yeah I think they really are! Thanks for looking and glad you liked these!

Great shots!
Thanks much, glad you liked them!
That are really impressice pics.
Thanks much for looking.
Seeing those photos makes this creature rather impressive. And you even answered the question of why it crossed the road!
It is fascinating to see one of them walk, very prehistoric.
Yes we know why it crossed the road! heh heh 🙂
Scary and fascinating creature at the same time. Great shots! 🙂
You are right about that, I never get tired of watching and photographing them, and thanks very much for your kind comments!
Wow! Such beautiful creatures and stunning shots as usual Phil!
I really appreciate you looking and commenting Lucy!
They always look so odd to me, walking… But they can book, when they wanna!
I know, to see them walking always kind of messes with my head a bit, and OH YEAH they can move VERY fast when they feel the need. I’ve seen them run, only for short distances, but still.
Lucky this one did not percieve me as a threat. 😯
WOW great shots Phil.
Thanks a million for checking out the photos!
Great captures! I wouldn’t want to block its path!
Thanks very much!
No me either. As far as I’m concerned he has the right of way. 🙂
I saw this big boy again yesterday, 😛
une belle prise
Merci!
Imagine being inside that belly.
Imagine curling up and going to sleep inside.
