Snack Time!!!

Best: View On White

A wild alligator in Iberia Parish decides it's time for a quick snack! Yes, this is a water snake of some sort. This shot isn't very good but in a split second it was all I could get before the action was over. I had not seen the snake before the gator grabbed it. There was a big explosion and water sprayed out of a grassy mat floating on the water and out came this gator a few feet away. So I took several shots but this showed the snake best. The alligator was about 6 feet long.
