Comment: Our first visit to Gatorland for the start of the 2011 wild bird nesting season in early March

 
The aligators in the lagoon provide proytection to the nests from predators

In return, the gators get to snack on the ocassional fledgling that falls out of its nest

The rookery is closest to the boardwalk's west side so morning light is best

By mid-March, most of the egrets are couring or sitting on eggs

Snowy Egrets seem to like to use gators as a platform
