The elusive Tree Climbing Mini Alligator surprised you got got such a close up and are still in one piece
With Spots!Luckily this wasn't one of the venom spitting ones.
He wasn't barking at you. He was dictating the terms of your surrender.View attachment 331454
This one was quite the conversationalist.......Barked at me for the better part of 15 minutes.
I tried to warn you. But take heart, Florida and some nearby states have appropriate Military Units that can assist. Joint Special Forces Command is only 90 min away in Tampa, C-130 Gunships are in the Pan-Handle as are a major detachment US RANGERS and can be on station in 90 min as well. The 82nd and the 101st Airborne are both less 2.5 hours away with plenty of good Drop Zones very closeWell about 10 minutes after he left he came back with a herd of them and they ran all over the campsite. It was an ambush. But i held my ground. They were eyeing my scones on the table but I didn't share. Peanuts only.
Love them. So calm. Near loop 2000? Several weeks ago I saw a group of aprox. 5 crossing through Site 2051 heading that area around the bus stop.View attachment 306842 Saw these guys waiting for the bus. No fear. I think there were 5 of them
