Our trip to Florida was a little premature for the alligator breeding season to start, but a streak of 90 degree plus days must have kicked things off. My second morning out photographing lead to an eruption of bellowing gators across the swamp. If you’re never heard a bellowing gator before, then you’re missing out on one of the most amazing, prehistoric sounds in nature. Breeding season is kicked off by the alligators bellowing and arching their heads and tails out of the water as seen here. On this morning, the entire swamp was full of bellowing gators and it was quite an experience.
