Visitor in our Front Yard

Well, not technically in our front yard.  More like our extended side yard.  This guy was trying to hide out and not be seen by us.  He was a smallish gator, maybe four feet or so.  Nathan was able to grab some shots of him before he swam away.

It always cracks me up when people ask me if there are alligators in the river here.  This is the equivalent to asking me if it will get hot in the summer.  We are in Florida and it is water.  There will be alligators.  We rarely see them from land though so it is nice when we can get some pictures of them.

I am probably making my mother-in-law very nervous by now, so I'll quit for today.
