I went for a walk today at Lettuce Lake and on the boardwalk I heard a bird making a racket! I had never heard this call before and it sounded perturbed, whatever it was. I slowly made my way around the bend and saw a great blue heron standing on a log making the most awful noise. It was unusual. A moment later I saw why...a small gator popped out of the water and even though the alligator couldn't take on the heron, the bird screamed at it for a moment then flew away. I'm sure there were some avian curse words in whatever it was saying. 02/01/17.
