Gone to See America 2014 Road Trip. Day 9: Clyde Butcher’s Swamp Cottage, Big Cypress National Preserve.
Small Alligator next to the back pond at Clyde Butcher’s Swamp Cottage. Big Cypress Swamp in Florida. If you look close there is an out of focus mosquito on the other side of the alligators head. It has to be pretty tough to get through the alligators skin.

My interests include the natural world, wildlife, landscapes, sky, and seascapes, travel, and astrophotography. I look for unique ways of viewing the world and presenting my images. I have traveled to over 55 countries in six continents, often on Semester at Sea voyages. While at home in New Jersey, I spend time on home renovation and expansion of a wildflower garden/meadow.
