Alligator courtship behavior

[Jim Miller]

Not many birds at the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge this week, but was able to watch the alligators courting. Mating season is just getting underway. Comments greatly appreciated. Thanks. Jim

Finally got rid of the camera shake thanks to a new tripod and Wimberly V2 head
