A young alligator, 4-5 feet, has been spotted in the small lake/retention pond/swamp in my apartment complex. I want to sit down with the great blue heron (pictured here with white ibis) and say, "I'm sorry, my beautiful friend, but the alligator seems to have eaten the turtles and will eat you, given the chance." But I'm sure it knows that and just wishes I wouldn't get any closer with my camera.
