Walking on a trail in a scrub forest

 

 

I round a corner and to my surprise.

There is a gator lying in the trail.

 

Not a little gator.

This is a very big gator.

 

Usually I see them in the water like this.

 

It turns out there is water within about a hundred yards of where I came across this beast.  Not knowing that at the time though, I was totally surprised by this find.  I have to say that finding an alligator on the same trail I’m walking, is significantly more intimidating than seeing one in the water from the safety of a boardwalk.

 

I decided to walk a different trail that day.
