Pine trees dominate the South Carolina low country landscape, including most of the wildlife areas I frequent so I don’t see a lot of autumn color change.

The back edge of the big pond at Donnelley WMA is an exception, and more this year than I remember.

I didn’t expect to see so many Alligators out as it was only about 50 F (10 C).

If you zoom in on the next photo you’ll see Alligators gathered under the Spoonie Tree, which I recently featured in a post: The Spoonie Tree, Slowly It Tilts.
