He Looks Hungry

An alligator lunges up out of the salt marsh after some fish earlier this week. He seemed to be very focused on the evening’s seafood menu which was good news for some of the nearby birds!

  I have found that if I stay out of the water at these times it generally turns out best for everyone. 🙂

      Plus I don’t want to get my camera gear wet. Canon would probably charge more then the hospital ER. 🙂

  I would not want to be a fish and have that big open mouth coming in for me. Glad you liked this Maggie!

  He seems to enjoy his meals right from the ocean with no grilling required. I prefer my food prepared a bit more. 🙂

Happy Memorial Weekend to you Phil! What a mighty, fierce portrait of our adorable, gentle-looking Mr. A (clearing my throat)! I tell you, you’re so good in putting him in the best light ;).

  He does tend to gulp a lot of water (and mud) with each plunge. Glad you liked this alligator pic!

  Oh yeah I was close, but he was only interested in fish and crabs, not me. 🙂
  Glad you enjoyed seeing the big guy!
