Description
Full and Happy Alligator by Debra Martz
This alligator seemed to be sleeping happily (is that a smile?) possibly with a full tummy!!I go to Leonabell Turnbull Birding Center in Port Aransas, Texas to bird watch but on occasion there is an alligator or two. It's not often that I see the alligators but recently 2 of them have been close by the boardwalk. I think it's safe as the boardwalk does have railings but some people don't agree. There is nothing to contain the wildlife in this area so I can only wonder where they go to when not visible here. I do watch very closely when walking the sidewalk to get to the boardwalk as there definitely is no protection from the wild there! And I know they can move very quickly as I witnessed one go after a turtle with spot on success! Shot this with my 150-600mm at 150mm

One of them was found in another area of town after Hurricane Harvey...they moved it back to this area but the wildlife is free to go anywhere it wants. I always enjoyed seeing them on those rare occasions.
