4. "Bubbles the Alligator"
10 months ago
3. "Baby Teeth"
11 months ago
Filmed with the Canon HV20 at the Robert Marshall Wildlife Preserve in the Florida Everglades. Casual filming, no tripod, etc. I nicknamed this alligator "Bubbles" because he was eating minnows and blowing bubbles (helps them submerge). I don't talk in the video the voices you hear are a couple from out of state, they were about 10 feet behind me but after they left it was just me and the alligator. Turn up your speakers at around 2:05 and you can hear a slight "growl". Keep in mind I grew up near the Everglades and have spent a lot of time near wildlife, I don't recommend getting as close as I did. Enjoy!

    If you've never seen Robert J. Flaherty's "Louisiana Story" (made in 1948) I recommend it - it's been restored by the Library of Congress and UCLA film school and is available on DVD. BTW: does Florida law allow you to feed talkative tourists to the wildlife? ;-)
