Albino Alligator Being Attacked at Donnelley Wildlife Management Area - ...

Albino alligators are extremely rare. Most are in aquariums. They are generally blind so not likely to survive long in the wild. That is why this video taken by my friend Rebecca Williams Connelly and her family at the Donnelley Wildlife Management area yesterday is so surprising. What appears to be an albino alligator of a decent size is attacked and eaten by an even larger alligator. Yikes!

What a treat to sneak an extra day off during the week to spend with my nephew. Today was bright and sunny and we walked the Audubon Swamp walk at Magnolia Plantation. You always hope to spot a gator or two but this was a gator soup. We spotted so many little fellas relaxing in the sun on the side of that path as well as some big rascals in the water. 

Is this my good side?

I stopped by the Autumn Craft Fair at Magnolia Plantation Gardens on Sunday and met this little fella. There were booths set up with handmade pottery and jewelry, art work and photography. The parking lot was full so I hope they had a good day. I caught my friend Leah Sparks grinning as she was holding cold hard cash earned from photography sales. Congrats!
