My Gator Land Photo Thread

[ArpeggioAngel]

Another great outing with some of my favorite people! Weather was beautiful, place was packed - had a great time with lots of great photo ops.

Going to take me a while - I took almost 300 photos today so I have to weed through them, pick my favs and then edit...

Hope you all enjoy!!

American Crocodile:

Lots of wild wading birds - more photos to come of them....

Yep - Gator Land has more than just gators!

Heading back to Photoshop now to edit the next round....

Katie Scarlet...I'm sitting here smiling. At 1:35 am in the morning. I almost feel like I was with y'all. You and Nanci are just cutie patooties. I like Nanci smiling on the gator, with her sunglasses up.
And I have before, but will again, tell Robbie that he and Tony are cutie patooties, too.

Awesome pics. I love the white gators. All the bird pics and the pics of all 4 of you are awesome. Thanks for sharing with us.

Amazing shots Katie. I don't know which are my favorites! Perhaps the white gators or the flamingo with an itch LOL.

See why I had to get mine in early??? I love the flamingo pic! And I could NOT get the white gaotrs at all. The white gators were so cool- each one was in its own enclosure, and had a carved wooden sign with its creole name and what it means, on the door.

Great pictures Katie! You all had so much fun!

Don't feel bad, hun. Mine didn't turn out...
