Big Cypress - Everglades



A "friendly" sleeping alligator of about 7 or 8 feet!



The water was clear enough to see through.  Lots of fish and this big turtle who was about 2 feet long!



Lots of these butterflies around, too!




And some food for the birds...



Shadows through the broad palm leaves.



I liked the patterns in the palms!



Can you guess what this is?



OK, one more palm leaf...told you I liked them!
