At the St Augustine Alligator Farm and #Zoological #Park is host to many #waterfowl species during nesting season, because the #birds are attracted to the protection against predators created by the alligators.
The alligators rarely bother the birds, either, as this Snowy #Egret in the same water as the gators, demonstrates the point.

#WaterfowlWednesday: A Snowy #Egret wades through the #marsh of the St Augustine Alligator Farm and Zoological Park. Birds like egrets and herons nest in colonies, often over marshes filled with alligators to protect them from other predators.
