A little patience produces a big surprise

Sitting next to my favorite camera fishing hole I was pleasantly surprised by an alligator dining on a fish he caught along with some other wading birds that frequently visit the area.

Nice... That is why we patiently sit in a good spot and wait for the photos to come to us.

I enjoyed the heron and the egret most.

Must have been exciting.
Did you check the picture in your camera after you shot it or wait till you got home?

I'm betting the 1st. It was a question from an old post just thought I'd ask.

What I like most is the story it tells. You are fishing for great photos and the aligator is fishing for actual fish. Reeling in a great photo is a lot like reeling in a great fish. You have both captured in one moment.

That is a really nice fish. Lol
