American Alligator Welcome to the Florida Outback weekly theme. The American Alligator remains the iconic animal of the Florida Everglades. It’s the top of the food chain in the glades. This guy, a 60+ year old gator, barely moved as we passed by his favorite spot to sun bath. Gators must keep their internal body temperature at 82º F so it’s a water and sun life. Again, the Nikon 1 V1 and the 70-300mm gave me plenty of reach in a light hiking package.
