I know that they youngsters crawling around everywhere in this scene belong to Dolly but have absolutely no idea what the larger gator (let's call is a sub adult) is doing in the middle of the pod!! On a warm day when it could be digesting it food those little ones would be fair game in the open water!! I was puzzled as to why Dolly was willing to allow the larger one to stick around!! She was about 10' from the bank at this point! I might also add that Dolly is one of the most tolerant females on the bayou!! Let's hope she stays that way because she is just about the largest female as well!!! Photos were taken on Horsepen Bayou!

Captured this with three RAW shots at -2..0..+2 EV. Digital blending in Photoshop CS6. I increased the overall saturation with Hue/Saturation in Photoshop.

After leaving the dry seed pod, the male Fiery Skimmer grabbed a juicy fly and sheltered behind the trunk of the old potted Murraya to enjoy his snack. Note the flower buds on the branch above, indicating that more rain can be expected. /
Apres avoir quitte la tige de graines seche, le male Fiery Skimmer a attrape une grosse mouche en vol et s'est abrite derriere le tronc du vieux Buis de Chine en pot pour la deguster. Notez les boutons de fleurs sur la branche au-dessus de lui, qui indiquent de nouvelles pluies a venir.

Came across these neat seed pods off the road .They are from the plant/ flower called "Velvetleaf" . One plant can produce up to 17,000 seeds and those seeds can remain dormant up to 50 years in the soil.
Spent flowers and seed pods look so neat in winter.

Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment and fav my images. Enjoy the day.
When a recipe calls for a vanilla pod, don't just throw it away after you scrape the caviar. Instead, fill a clean jar with white sugar and insert the scraped pods. A few days later, you'll have a jarful of vanilla-scented sugar. You can use it in your recipes or simply sweeten your coffee or tea with it.
