Welcome to my changed, and hopefully improved, alligator pages. As time has progressed, I've been able to collect many observations about alligator behavior. I've put a large amount of this material into my web pages.
Since the number of pages has increased, I've decided to present this information in a different format, and one which will,hopefully, make it more useful for reference. The original format remains as a sort of diary which gives a sense
of time to these observations, and also the evolution of my knowledge about alligators. I will group the observations as I feel they relate to each other. On each page, however, the observations will still be listed in chronological order-
usually with the newest material at the top. There will be a few exceptions in cases where I have multiple updates of a specific situation (such as progress of an alligator nest).

 Here are my "alligator behavior" pages.  Dates in the columns refer to when the observations were made, not necessarily when they were posted/uploaded to my pages.
