| Here are some pics taken in 2010.
These two were taken on January 14 by Joe Isnardi of BPK. He forwarded to me
to put on our website...these are of our resident female gator, lying on rock
next to observation deck, with a dead tarpon in her mouth. This was during that
severe cold spell we had the first of the year, and chances are, she found the
dead fish floating and decided to grab it to eat. Ironically, it was too cold
for her to eat also (gators usually don't eat until air temp. is above 70
degrees), but she looked like she was determined to hang onto that fish until it
warmed up. |

| Here's a pic of a Veery, taken by a visitor, Robert Doe, on 5/1/10 at the
Blue Hole. I spotted the bird and identified it (my first Veery in the Keys) and
he confirmed the sighting with this picture. |

If anyone is interested in spending just a few hours a
week, volunteering at the Blue Hole, watching Mother Nature in all her glory,
please contact
Carlene Edwards! (e-mail) or at

Do not feed or molest the alligators––it is
dangerous and illegal! Access for the disabled is provided.
