Caught this young bull out Friday soaking some sun. Probably barely 8' but he was 'preparing'.

really npt much different all the vegetation is washed out yellow/brown, and the gator is pretty much gray with slight yellowing under the jaw and throat area. Very bright sunny day which washed out almost everything....hence the easy conversion to BW.

Thanks to you and Traveler. I've never seen a gator in it's natural habitat, so the color version gives me a better idea. Scary looking critters!

Looks like the only way I can get comments is by using guilt.

They only time I ever seen a gator was In florida when I was a teen.If I recall the name we visited was silver springs where they had a glass bottom boat ride.We had to cross a walk bridge over a muddy looking river and in that river was filled with crocs just under the walk bridge looking up just waiting for any of us to fall over or the bridge to collapse.Once we got to the park and on the glass bottom boat is where I seen the gators along the river banks. The Crocs where way more scary then the gators.

This one lives about 200 feet from my back dock.... one just needs to be mindful of where one lives and who the neighbors are...oh yeah and don't have small animals on the loose.
