Alligators
I have my mother-in-law visiting later this month and I know she'd really like to see an alligator in the wild
Have any been spotted recently from a public golf cart path? Thank you |

There was one in the Pond by the Miona Rec Center suning himself on the sand mound. Should warm up by mid week. He was there about 3:30 when I saw him. About a 6-7' gator.

There was a crowd of people looking at one yesterday in the pond on Buena Vista off the path just south of Palmers. Should still be there!

There is an alligator in the pond at the end of Barcelona Drive, but is not that easy to see. Just swims around with hardly anything showing except his head.

The one in the pond on the Buena Vista trail just south of Palmer CC is probably the one that is spotted with the most regularity. Also he is a big one 10 - 12 footer....gn

Be careful that the smaller gator doesn't nip your toes while you're taking pictures of the big one.

Thanks, Barefoot - I'll make sure the mother-in-law is standing between me and the gators...

Alligator update
just looking for an update on recent alligator sightings
my mother-in-law has been here 48 hours, but has had a traumatic time of it so far: - four hours getting through Immigration with threats of immediate deportation (she was given two "visa waiver" numbers and they expected her to explain why, when it was them that had given them to her!) - seven hours waiting to be seen at ER last night (8 pm to 3 am) for a condition probably exacerbated by her Immigration experience - she is 83 Anyway, once she feels able to head out in the golf cart, I should like to show her an alligator if possible without having her travel too far from where I live in De La Vista Any sightings in the last day or two? Thank you |

It is 4:08 Friday afternoon and my husband just came thru "the cut in the fence" at the end of Barcelona Dr. The alligator is there in the pond and visible now.

Seeing a gator in a pond at TV is not seeing a gator in the wild.
Take her for an airboat ride. They'll show you gators in the wild. |
