Well That’s Just Not Fair!

So now they are hiding in trees?!? Bad enough I have to watch my step, but now I also have remember to look up when walking around out there?! Peering past a tree in the swamp recently and guess who I see perched up on some reeds and brush? Yes indeed it’s our old pal Mr. Gator who happens to be blending in quite nicely I might add. What a sneak!

YIKES! Do they normally do this in the summer months to get away from all the tourists? lol

  If that’s what they are doing then they have the right idea, the tourists are thick in the woods this year. 😀

  As long as he doesn’t jump out suddenly to surprise me I’m OK with him hiding. Thanks Paula!

I think I would be very nervous walking around in those reeds, Phil. Well spotted. He certainly blends in very well, in fact much too well. 😯

  He does blend in well doesn’t he? I would like to think that’s just accidental but if he was really trying to be that stealthy then… 😯 🙂

Serious!! Oh my goodness! I’d rather they stay on the ground. I don’t want to have to watch above me, too!

  That’s what I was thinking! It’s bad enough I have to look on both sides of the path along the swamp but now I have to look up as well?!? 😯
