February is probably a little slow. Things don't really get going until April, and then stay busy until the end of June. Weather can play a big factor (water levels and temps) and can slow down things by a few weeks to a month. But early February is not a peak time for visiting.
Hi Don: Early this year, I began photographing @ Gatorland at the end of January and very much enjoyed it. It's better later on, but it's still totally worth the visit in February.
