Family Planning in Action
Uploaded: November 16, 2012
These are American Crocodiles caught in THE ACT of making a Family.
An Endangered Species I was fortunate to catch them breeding a bit early in the Main Pond at Gatorland . NO ONE ELSE AROUND ....
Not a resubmit but a similar shot w/a bit different touch on the editing. Personally I like the females eyes which show you the exposed extra protective cover they possess .
Little brother refers to it as Animal Porn ;O)
ENJOY THE WEEKEND
