An Asian elephant (smaller ears) stands with one back leg cocked. Its trunk is curved into its mouth.

A brown and white streaked owl sits on a tree branch framed by palm fronds. It has large black eyes and a yellow hooked beak.

The head of a large alligator with the remains of a big fish in its many teeth.

A white-ish monkey with a light brown back and fluffy brown hair upon its head looks to the top right of the frame. Its hand is raised near its chin. It looks pensive.

Happy #WorldWildlifeDay! Let’s keep admiring and protecting them. We’re so lucky to share the earth with such beautiful creatures.❤️ #SriLankanElephant #BarredOwl #AmericanAlligator #ToqueMacaque #birds #mammals #WildlifePhotography #EastCoastKin

The head of a very large alligator with a very large fish in its open mouth. And a lot of white teeth.

Bit of a day today. These guys were EVERYWHERE, and they were alert. (Don’t worry—I use a looooooong zoom where alligators are concerned.) #AmericanAlligator #Alligator #WildlifePhotography #EastCoastKin

Going to throw in a #BNWMacro or two. I live where if there’s water, there are alligators. So I have a lot of photos from varying distances (with a strong zoom lens 😉). Here is an #alligator eye—and some teeth! #AmericanAlligator #photography #EastCoastKin

Just remembered I had this account. #alligator #americanalligator #florida #wildlife #photography #wildlifephotography

An American alligator lies half-submerged in the still, golden water of a quiet East Texas swamp. Reflections of cypress trunks and Spanish moss ripple across the surface, blending the reptile’s rough, armored skin into the mirrored forest. The warm afternoon light glows over the bayou, capturing the untamed calm of southern wetlands where wildlife thrives unseen. This Texas nature photograph highlights the texture, color, and reflection of the alligator in its natural habitat — a serene moment of swamp life deep in the humid wilds of East Texas.

Young alligator on a fallen tree. The gator is dark with a pale underside and has dark brown eyes. It has a long snout with small, pointed teeth on its upper jaw pointing downwards. It has clawed, slightly webbed feet and a long, thick tail with light grey brown stripes. The tree is in water.

Do you think one gator was pursuing to protect their territory or for something else?

An ink drawing done with ballpoint pen and markers featuring an American alligator waiting at the water's surface, mostly the gator's head; its reflection in the water. Both contour lines and stippling were utilized for the drawing. Chartreuse and grey-greens are the main colors, with hints of copper-brown to further tie in the implied swamp habitat surrounding the gator. There is vague dark blue lineart to emphasis the gator.

Still debating on if I want to try and do some prompts for this year's SciArtSeptember...
While I continue to flounder with indecisiveness, here's one from the 2022 prompts (5 of 30.)

Prompt: mirrored

American alligator swimming in water with only his head visible. The gator is dark grey with dark eyes. Some isosceles triangle shaped white are visible, pointing downwards at the top edge of his long snout. The water is blue and ripply.

Meet Amergator, the embodiment of the "'American Alligator" concept.
Amergator is an apex predator, known to hunt much larger animals such as the Florida panther and black bear. Aside from humans, she has no natural predators.

While out birding, I stumbled across some alligators! I was pretty shocked. I hadn’t realized they live here.

A gray horse's nose is in the foreground. On the trail in front of the horse is a baby alligator, about 3-4 feet in length

A medium shot of an American alligator lying on a moss-covered log near the edge of dark water. The alligator is positioned in the foreground, facing left, with its head, front legs, and part of its tail visible. Its dark skin appears bumpy and ridged due to its bony plates. Green vegetation grows on the log and along the water's edge in the background, suggesting a wetland or swampy area at Lake Martin in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana.

The iris of most Alligators is dark brown with tiny flecks of gold streaks running through. Every so often these crocodilians will even have greenish or even blue eyes.
