We started out intent on duck hunting. But, that really didn't pan out. So, we just explored parts of the everglades that we don't spend a good deal of time in anymore. In fact I don't think I have been in this portion since 1990.
Unfortunately I only brought my cell phone as I had planned on being in the water the whole time.
We walked up on a rookery and as the birds (a mix of wood storks, herons, and egrets) shifted further away from us a gator came cruising out toward where the birds were landing. That sucker turned sideways and he had what was probably the longest snout to eye measurement I have ever seen on a gator. I have seen some big gators! He was to far away from us to get a decent picture with the phone.
We had a ribbon snake on the road and as I took its picture the thing actually opened its mouth and slithered to me. Like he was gonna scare me away. It was too funny.

Some guava in the center backed by deciduous red maples.
