I noticed yesterday across the lake from my home an alligator sunning itself on the bank. It was the first gator we have seen in ages. As I approached he let me know that he's not getting back in the chilly water so I let a sleeping gator lay. Surprisingly, he stayed in the same spot most of the day until someone walked by and startled him.

You were wise to let "a sleeping gator lie," Alex. 😀
Wonderful shot and I envy you your nice weather.

Alex, apparently this gator had a day off, 😜 .
Maybe you're accustomed to such a situation, but if this would happen in a nearby pond of mine, I would be frightened to death.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.

It is waiting for someone walking with a dog! Very good shot with nice clarity and colors.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.

I guess after time one might get used to living so close to these creatures but like SEA I would feel very uncomfortable...that aside, a great shot and intro, Alex.
