This is the last daily picture for 2016: one photo each day (366/366). It seemed appropriate to show snacks to ring in the New Year. In the bowls, from left to right: salsa, mixed nuts, ranch dip, and chex mix. The salsa and chex mix are home made. The chex mix is well seasoned, unlike the premade kind, and includes a bit of cayenne to liven things up.
Happy New Years everyone Hope you have a good year ahead.

*[that stick that the head-zookeeper is holding is attached to a large dead 'white-rat' that he 'hand-feeds' to the largest patriarchs! They earned it and deserved it! (He stick-fed three of the largest gators.) The rest of the group of 150 have to wait until dinner at dusk! LOL]
The St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park is one of Florida's oldest continuously running attractions, having opened on May 20, 1893. It has 24 species of crocodilians, and also a variety of other reptiles, mammals and birds, as well as exhibits, a few animal performances, and educational demonstrations. The park began in 1893 on St. Augustine Beach as a minor attraction at the end of a railway running through neighboring Anastasia Island. The alligators were added at first to get visitors to buy souvenirs and see the museum there. Soon, the reptiles themselves became the main point of interest. Growing in popularity, the park moved to its current location in the early 1920s. The park changed owners in the 1930s, and, after a devastating fire, they started reconstruction and expansion of the facilities. In 1993, for their 100-year anniversary, the park became the first place in the world to display every species of crocodilian. As of 2012, this was the only place where one can see every species of alligator, crocodile, caiman and gharial. Over the years, the zoo has expanded to include exotic monkeys, birds, and other reptiles. The bird collection alone boasts some species not often seen in other zoos, including hornbills, cassowary, marabou, Cape griffon vultures and Pesquet's parrots. In 2008, the zoo opened a new Komodo dragon facility that also exhibits lizards and snakes found within the range of the saltwater crocodile. On September 10, 1992, the Alligator Farm was designated a U.S. Historic District. The back section of the park contains a large bird rookery, where 'free-roaming' local bird species such as egrets, herons, wood storks & roseate spoonbills nest & rear their young.
The American alligator is a large crocodilian reptile endemic to the southeastern United States. Adult male American alligators measure 11 to 15 ft in length and can weigh up to 999 lbs. Females are smaller measuring around 9.8 ft. The American alligator inhabits freshwater wetlands such as marshes and cypress swamps from Texas to North Carolina. It is distinguished from the sympatric American crocodile by its broader snout, with overlapping jaws and darker coloration, and is less tolerant of saltwater but more tolerant of cooler climates than the American crocodile, which is found only in tropical climates.
Alligators are apex predators and consume fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Subsequent conservation efforts have allowed their numbers to increase and the species was removed from the endangered species list in 1987. The species is the official state reptile of three states: Florida, Louisiana, and Mississippi U.S.A.

I've always loved Fiesta Ware - particularly this lovely Shamrock Green shade. The Braeburn is a nice compliment to the green.
Shannon likes to munch on grass. She has no issues with her tummy; she just likes to snack on grass like a little cow. Mooooo!

One of the owlets has left the nest and Mom has to feed him on the ground. I suppose this is when they are most vulnerable. They can't yet fly.
Here is my photo from my July 2012 visit to the Calgary Zoo, about a week after I had purchased my 60D.
Here you can see the head and long, long neck of a beautiful giraffe reaching way, way up to snag a snack from a very high up tree branch!
It was a gorgeous summer day and the light was amazing, and you could tell that this lovely giraffe was really enjoying its snack time!
Hope you have all had a great Tuesday so far, the weather continues to improve here!
Spring seems to be here to stay!
This gull among a half dozen others perch on the West Dennis Public Beach snack bar waiting for someone to drop or leave their food unattended. This guy decided to put on a show for me when I put the camera on him.

Ripping currents and huge swells have conspired against me this week taking any decent photographs of the grey nurse sharks at South West Rocks. Truth be told I'm pretty happy to return to the boat with my camera and strobes in hand and safety stop completed.
This particular shark was one of the most curious in the bunch coming in closer for a look at the diver with the funny camera thingy that kept flashing. I loved his mosquito armada of pilot fish overhead walking the thin line between being a tasty snack and being brave hanging out with the big boys...

Day 11 of #inktober - prompt: Snacks
Snacks don’t mean anything in particular to me, except for stuff you are offered to nibble on during meetings or conferences.
The inktober challenge is very simple. Just draw the prompt of the day in ink and publish it using the inktober hashtags. After a few years where I passed my turn, I am trying this 2024 edition even though it will be a month full of activities and commitments. I chose the free-style of the continuous line to represent the prompt, without fuss or colors.
I hope you like it!
