Gator watching

It's a good day to go gatoring!

love the reflections in the dark water

Oh, look what's coming here......

they look so much like dinosaurs

Wow, he's a pretty BIG ONE! Look at all those bony plate things on his back!

I think he sees me....

He's headed over to that ramp!

yes, there he goes..........up!

.......and then ANOTHER ONE came along, and shoved him off the ramp! There was a BIG SPLASH!!....and the winner gets the ramp.

I just love to go out gator watching!

Oh that is so wild, and for us Aussie I'm immediately thinking of the crocs in the water! He is a very fine gator, from the safety of my computer!
Have a happy weekend

Okay, let me try this again. If you get two comments, it's because something blinked in the middle of my typing. So here we go again! That gator looks like he was expecting dinner on that dock/platform! I'm glad YOU weren't the dinner! LOL. Are you getting all this rain and storminess today? We had bad storms overnight and it has been raining most of the day. There were tornadoes in the area, but thankfully not here. We needed the rain, but goodness, this has been a LOT. I'm afraid the alligators will all be washed up on the land everywhere! LOL. Thankfully we don't have any in Still Waters Pond (that I know of). Take care my friend, and thank you for being a very special friend indeed. Love ya.

Tonight's Micromoon--we watched it rise over the Battery tonight, it was red and orange

Skywatchers in Central, Mountain and Pacific time zones will get a view of the full moon tonight (Sept. 13) at 11:32 p.m., 10:32 p.m. and 9:32 p.m., respectively, while East Coasters will see the moon at its fullest at 12:32 a.m. on the 14th. Regardless of time zone, the moon will appear just a bit dimmer than usual (eerie!), because it will be at apogee, or its farthest distance from Earth. That means that the moon will appear about 14% smaller and 30% dimmer than when it is at its closest point to Earth, which is known as perigee. (Livescience.com)

LETS END KILLER WHALE CAPTIVITY!!

Please research the captive killer orcas that the SEAWORLD franchise holds captive. It is animal cruelty at it's worst. Those killer whales need to be FREE, NOT HELD CAPTIVE BY us humans and forced to do 'tricks' for our amusement. (and to make SEAWORLD a lot of money. ) Please go watch BLACKFISH when y'all have time okay? also read "Killer at Seaworld". You will learn so much and I doubt if you ever pay entrance fees to enter SEAWORLD or any of it's affiliate parks again.........because you will learn what the money really goes for........PROFIT. Their profit...........the poor whales gain nothing. But life captivity. Sad lonely lives in bathtub size enclosures where they cant even interact with their own pods and offspring normally. Many of them are so sick and die very painful deaths.The 'breeding' program is a joke. They are not even allowed to procreate in a natural and normal manner. The whales that were caught in the wild were taken from their pods and their mothers in a very cruel and inhumane fashion---it is heartbreaking. It's awful sad. Please research and then let me know what you think, okay? Whales are magnificent creatures, I love them. I tell everybody it's okay to love them and to want to go see them......but please go to areas where you can view them in the wild either from the beaches or cliffs or from boats. Not from cement swimming pools where they are mis-treated, gawked at, and forced to 'perform'. God created them and intended for them to exist in the seas! They really need to remain free........................
