Evening Swim
Tonight I followed this alligator as it swam across the marsh pond looking quite purposeful. It turned out that he was heading over to visit his friend that was in the near corner of the marsh. A few minutes later I saw his friend rise his face up out of the water to say hello. Soon after that the friend scooped himself up a nice blue crab along with a bunch of pond vegetation that was all over the place. Photos of the crab crunch will likely be posted tomorrow.


Nice. At first I thot he had a net strung over his face.
So did I — glad I’m not the only one. Love the pictures!
Thanks glad you liked those photos!
Thanks. There are a lot of weeds in some areas of the marsh pond right now. The alligators don’t seem to mind.
Great shots. I love the reflections. The water seems as smooth as glass. He almost seems to be floating in midair.
Thanks Molly. It was very calm out there last night giving the water that glassy look.
Good for photos, but bad for me since it was also perfect for tons of those little biting flies that like me so much. 😦
Beautiful shots !
The second one with the reflections , superb !
Congrats , Phil !

Thank you utham, so happy you liked these!
My Grandma, what big teeth you have! Another one Little Red Riding Hood wouldn’t want to meet.
I don’t think Grandma wants to meet these guys either. 😯 🙂
Great shots Phil, the second one is wonderful.
Thanks Jan, that second one is the gator that caught the crab right after I took that photo, he is today’s post.
Faces only an orthodontist could love
Yeah but they made need to sedate him just a bit before beginning any work on his teeth. 🙂
Love the second shot particularly Phil. They all seem to be wearing weed this season.. 🙂
That weed look is currently the hottest trend in Paris from what I understand. 😀
He is also the one that caught the crab which is featured in today’s post.
Oh look: He is smiling! ☺☺☺
Yes he is smiling because he is about to catch a tasty crab! 😀
See today’s post.
This alligator gives new meaning to the expression “toothy grin.” Awesome shots.
Oh he has a toothy grin alright Mike!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed these photos!
Hello Phil,
the 2nd shot is amazing, great reflections!
Wish you a nice day

Thanks very much moni! Look for more photos of that guy in today’s post.
Is he looking at me 🙂
I think he is looking at you Nia! 😯 🙂
I love his eye make up Phil. 😉
Oh yes Lucy, very fashionable for sure!
What a messy eater! You really had a great capture too, Phil. 😉
Thanks very much for looking and commenting Sylvia!
He has a very good dentist, by the look of those teeth!
Yes and that’s kind of unusual, they do not normally have nice polished teeth. 🙂
What beautiful eyes he has at the first photo … He seems to use both eyeliner and eyeshadow 😉 … // Maria
He is quite stylish and fashionable Maria, thanks!
