A young Alligator has taken to draping himself on a rock quite near the shore of the pond in the rookery. Many local photographers have captured beautiful images with reflections, eye closeups and detail of his stripes over the last several weeks.
I couldn’t resist adding to his fame when the opportunity with these reflections presented itself.
I’m pretty sure the rock has been right there but this is the first time I’ve seen anything but a turtle on it. Some branches hanging over it have shifted, perhaps making it a more appealing perch. Plus, there is no worry about sharing.
Here is another view from a few feet away through the downed branches.

Great title for this guy !
Thanks, Ted! It will be interesting to see who takes on the rock next as this fellow is about to out grow it.
He is definitely looks like he is not interested in sharing that rock! 🙂 Great reflections, Ellen!
Not enough room for two! Thanks, Donna!
Wow! I love reflections. your subject really “rocks”!
Thanks, Michael, and thanks for stopping by! I’m always on the lookout for refections of nature.
