Close-up of the "owl gator".

[Sharon Lee]

Great close up... love these magnificent beasts

[❀ Lynn]

Hope it doesn't get a chance to taste owl stew! Cool shot Rob.

[Rob Crosby]

@sugarmuser @lynnb Thanks. And, yes, Lynn, no owl stew allowed on the menu1

[Milanie]

Not long enough lens for me! Hope there was some cropping involved or a high fence or something. Really, great shot!

[Rob Crosby]

@milaniet Milanie, Very little cropping and about 4 feet from lens to snout, BUT, it's a small one, about 6 feet and I was about 2 feet up on a dry bank. Clear that when it decided to move it would be into the water and safety not UP and after me!

[Shirley Banford]

Great capture.

[Milanie]

@rob257 Glad to hear you had his route planned! And 6 feet is bigger than me - so too close! :) Do love the shot.

@sabanford @milaniet I don't mind getting uncomfortable and dirty for a good shot, but I'm a coward at heart and don't knowingly take any chances!
