First Wild Gator!
Yesterday I saw my very first wild aligator, since I moved here in texas. I moved in october of 03, so i've been itching to see one for a while. I got some pictures of it also, but it's on my new 35mm (refer to my "phtography 2" post) so i'll show you all when I develup the film.

Very nice. Nothing is more amazeing and majestic than any species of crocodilian in my opinion. Expecially in the wild, what a bonus.
