American alligator

Photo by Mark M.

It's hard to take a funny photo of an alligator. This was the best I could do after a morning at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm. The big bulls were a little feisty because mating season is approaching and the Harleys heading on A1A to bike week in Daytona Beach sound like male gators bellowing.

For those of you not familiar with the Alligator Farm, it's worth a visit (www.alligatorfarm.com). It's been around since 1893 and has a world class wading bird rookery. The great white egrets and the wood storks have started nesting. The yellow crown night herons, the roseate spoonbills arrived while I was there and there is a smattering of ibises. For nature photographers, the rookery is a huge draw.

Hahah, this picture makes me giggle - it reminds me of guys "posturing" in a bar. hehe.

As far as my caption, the one on the left is saying:

"Hey Sooners fan.. I see you over there checkin' me out. If you try to make boots out of me, I'll make the BCS championship game look like child's play!"

(sorry, you've got a Gator fan commenting on an alligator picture!) :)
