Default I have the gators scanned....

I remembered that Dougdann had posted a few gators from TX. I took these photos in March of 98 a few days after I got married. The photos were taken with a Minolta X-9.

All the gator photos were taken at the South Carolina and Savanah Georgia National Wildlife Refuge it is the boarder of SC and GA.

I found a couple of babbies laying on a log.
1 seen me and ran back onto the water.
The one that I was very risky at was the momma laying next to the road (I was stupid!!!) I walked alittle closer (not thinking that those things have teeth and can run and catch my big butt.) but I got some really cool photos. I guess that is why they make zoom lens lol for stupid people like me!!!
I had a closer one of the momma you could see her teeth but I could not find that one to scan and show.

I hope you all enjoy seeing a little piece of our marsh land...

Good pictures Sheri, I'm going to stay away from gater country unless I'm armed, they blend in too well, I imagine it would be easy to walk up on one without even realizing it
