Airboats and Alligators


Went to Lake Trafford in Immokalee for an airboat ride.  Lots of birds and alligators.  Most are the same birds I see in my own Naples community, but a great many more.

Snowy egret.  The water was clear and a rich blue.

This image illustrates the number of birds in the area.

Seeing a bull in the water with a cattle egret on its back was a surprise.

Lots of alligators but most didn't offer me a clear or interesting shot.

A tricolored heron looked startled.

  1. Wonderful photos, Jack. Your Snowy Egret shot is terrific, a winner. Also enjoyed seeing the bull with Cattle Egret on its back. Interesting to see Gators in the wide so long as they are not too close.

  2. The shot of the Egret is fabulous, Jack.
