12' (give or take a foot), American Alligator (There was a nice canal between him and me.)

Oh! I thought you meant there was 12 ft between you and it Nice one.

Neat shot - I'll bet you are glad the canal was there(?).

Yeah, as he is a beast. On the trail I was on, I've seen him stretch from tail in water to nose in water all the way across and the trail is at least 10 feet wide. Even then I made sure there were slower people between me and him...

I saw and had up close encounters with enough gators a year ago in south FL to last me a lifetime. Only way I intend to like them now is fried or blackened.
