As I was visiting Six Mile Cypress Slough on Saturday I saw a good sized gator chased across the lake by a smaller gator. They came straight at the boardwalk I was on so I got down for a low angle. If you look close you can see a little hitchhiker right above the gator's eye.

FYI the sign was in the photo but actually faces the other direction. I just tuned it around in PS.
Taken at Okefenokee Swamp while kayaking - lots of alligators but surprisingly few water birds. (I guess the gators had to eat something.)
the gators cannot eat just yet as their body temp has to get up so they can digest their food and not turn into concrete in their stomachs.
The rookery at Smith Oaks in located on an island which is usually surrounded by gators. The gators protect the eggs and chicks from raccoons, possums, cats and other critters. The gators also take a few birds, especially chicks who have fallen from the nest. I love to arrive well before shooting time and just observe the dynamics of the rookery. Much is beautiful and even magical, but the underlying theme is that life in the wild is very hard and often unforgiving.

A really big gator seen at Anahuac Wildlife Refuge last weekend. I really wanted to try and let you see how awesome his teeth are so this is cropped from the next photo which has most of him. I was too close to get him all in...no worries it was with the 400mm lens and he was across the canal. Best viewed LARGE....all the better to eat you my dear:)

El gat o moix (Felis silvestris catus) és un petit mamífer carnívor domèstic. El gat ha estat en convivència propera amb els humans des de fa uns 9.500 anys,una data molt anterior a les estimacions prèvies, que en fixaven la domesticació a fa entre 3.500 i 8.500 anys.
Els noms actuals més generalitzats en moltes llengües d'Europa (gat, cat, chat, gatto, gato, Katze, katt, kat, etc.) deriven del mot llatí vulgar cattus,paraula que al·ludia específicament als gats domèstics en contraposició als gats salvatges que, en llatí, eren anomenats felis. N'hi ha dotzenes de races, algunes sense pèl o sense cua com a resultat de mutacions genètiques, i n'hi ha una gran varietat de colors. Són experts predadors i poden caçar més de mil espècies diferents d'animals per alimentar-se.També són animals que poden assimilar certs conceptes, i alguns poden ser entrenats per manipular mecanismes senzills, com ara per girar els panys de les portes. Es comuniquen amb miols, gemecs, xiulets, grunyits i aproximadament un centenar de vocalitzacions diferents,a més del llenguatge corporal.
El gato o gato doméstico (Felis silvestris catus) es un pequeño mamífero carnívoro de la familia Felidae. El gato está en convivencia cercana al hombre desde hace unos 9.500 años, periodo superior al estimado anteriormente, que oscilaba entre 3.500 y 8.000 años.
Los nombres actuales más generalizados derivan del latín vulgar catus, palabra que aludía especialmente a los gatos salvajes en contraposición a los gatos domésticos que, en latín, eran llamados felis.
Hay docenas de razas, algunas sin pelo o incluso sin cola, como resultado de mutaciones genéticas, y existen en una amplia variedad de colores. Son expertos depredadores que cazan más de cien especies diferentes de animales para alimentarse. También son animales que pueden asimilar algunos conceptos, y ciertos ejemplares pueden ser entrenados para manipular mecanismos simples.
Se comunican con gemidos, gruñidos y alrededor de un centenar de diferentes vocalizaciones,además del lenguaje corporal.
Se cree que el gato salvaje africano (Felis silvestris lybica) es su ancestro más inmediato.
Sin embargo, al tratarse de una subespecie puede intercambiar (y de hecho lo hace) material genético con otras subespecies de Felis silvestris. Se ha detectado hibridación con el gato montés europeo (Esta hibridación masiva se considera la principal amenaza para la conservación de las variantes salvajes).
The art of lifeforms. Mother Nature never ceases to amaze me with the myriad forms, spectacular in power, that she has put forth over the eons. Some have been around for so long, such as this one. Each deserves your respect. Believe it or not, this alligator is critical to your drinking water. Never assume you are independent of other beings. That is a sad and ignorant viewpoint, that has gotten our species into a lot of trouble, and we're going to have a time getting out of it. But I do believe we can, if we start to open up and see things with a broader perspective and a keener eye.

I met this little fella, peering up at me, at the Black Hammock area of Orlando, at Lake Jesup. He was the first image I took with my new series of cameras that I've been adoring. This is a vintage/golden aged type treatment of the image.

This alligator was resting on the bank of the St. Lucie River in Stuart, Florida. See this, and more, on my website at www.tom-claud.pixels.com.

This male seemed to be the deepest bass vibrato in the area. The finer concentric circles in the water are from the vibration of his mating call. This behavior continues on into May when the mating begins, routinely in the evening. I don't usually photograph gators unless they are displaying an interesting behavior and this was one of those times.

-- Strange to see an open vista in crowded SE Florida. We almost forgot what open space looks like. But don't go down there; lots of alligators.
