These guys were hanging out, sunning themselves about 30 feet away from us. I wanted to get closer for a good head shot, but Barry said I shouldn't... Oh well.
But alligators aren't the only wildlife that Myakka has to offer. Check out these shots we got of some turkey vultures:
It's also just a wonderful place to hike. They have this really neat "canopy walk" where you can walk across the tree tops. At the end is a tall tower which overlooks the entire park!
I'm so lucky to live here! So anyhow, I'll post some more exploring around Florida soon... I have got to show you what you can find on Casey Key!

Great alligator pic. Lucky you!
Totally Jealous! 'Gators and nice weather.
My favorite place in the world would be on the island of Belize... far cry from the frigid NE (Though we are warming up...hit 45F today I think)
1) when I come visit, you HAVE to take me to myakka state park!
2) those are some BIG gators
3) thanks for making me realize just how much I miss turkey vultures. I forgot I had a profound love for them!
LOL Allie, don't worry - we'll go to Myakka when you come. It's frickin' incredible to go there! :)
Great post! Loved the alligators. In answer to your question, no you don't have to use the themes if you don't want to.
