Alligator Hatchlings with Mama Gator
Yesterday, a park volunteer directed us to a location where he had heard the distinctive "chirp" of gator hatchlings. We went to the location, found mama gator, and heard little gators chirping. After a few minutes, the little ones started to come out of the foliage and show themselves. We counted at least 20. These two decided to climb on top of mom. For those familiar with Brazos Bend, this is on the right side of the 40 Acre trail between the trail head, and the tower (as you walk towards the tower). Brazos Bend State Park in SE Texas. 9/2019.
