Look who I saw last week

 The male alligators produce a loud, low rumbling noise that is often mistaken for thunder. This roar or "bellow" can be heard up to 1 mile away. Females also make a bellowing noise, but it is softer and does not carry as far. This roar is used to establish territory and to call females for breeding. Young alligators make a chirping noise to alert others, as well as the mother, of approaching danger. They will also make a loud hissing noise by expelling air through their mouth as an aggressive gesture.
{turn music off to hear the video).




pretty cool huh?



See You Later, Alligator.

Hope everybody had a Happy 4th.  We opted to stay home, had a BBQ and a small fireworks show in the backyard. Alexis loved the sparkles.
