Description
Just before I moved from florida last summer, I went to the pier to take some pictures. I got some nice pics of people fishing, seagulls, pelicans, surfers and sunbathers. As I was shooting some pics, I happened to notice this sign that said DON'T FEED THE PELIGATORS. I lived in Florida for 40 years and never heard of a Peligator. Well, right about then some cute girl in a bright pink bikini caught my eye. So naturally, doing a guy thing I began to take her picture. Just as I was about to snap the shot, the girl screamed and began running down the pier. I thought to myself what a strange reaction to having her picture taken, or maybe she thought I was a stalker or something ....disappointed I slowly turned around to this hessing sound (snakes hiss ..gators hess). There looking me right in the face was the strangest and ugliest creature I ever saw. I quickly snapped the picture you now see ..... I then turned an ran down the pier passing the cute bikini girl.
I later found out that these creatures are somewhat rare and they are always looking for a handout...
Hey everyone. Have a super-terrific week.

Awesome postwork !!! :D Superb !!
ROFL!!!! Oh Ray, this is my FAV so far!!! And if anyone has seen one of these feed....this is sooo cool!!!
Great capture! Usually they dine on a regular diet of Jackalopes which they scoop up and store on their weekdend trips to Wyoming and Colorado. This one's obviously very hungry....
Whoa, gnarly creature! I'll bet that guy can eat his own body weight in fish, in a single sitting! Marvelously fantastic work Ray! You never cease to spark the ol' plug and amaze! Have an awesome day buddy!
ROFL Very cool work! I love photo-manips like this!
that is clever and a great manipulation.
Ohhhh, that's one nasty looking bird! I have no doubt feeding it would result in the loss of a finger or two!
I love it!! great work..
Great ! What an exciting life you must have ! Full of adventures !
Terrific work ! Love your parallel world.
LOL looking for a hand out?To eat maybe,lol!Nasty looking fellow he is!Surprised you actually took your eyes off the pink bikini girl,though...Brilliant work,Ray!Love the sign,too!One of your best I think.Have a fabulous day,you!-M :^)
One of my favourites!!! Great work!!Bravo!!!!
Ray, I have to agree with the rest. This is one of my favorites too. Superb post work. Love the sign too. Great touch to a great creation. Hope you didn't lose any fingers shooting this rarity. Aloha
Oh wow, as if the pterodactylus has some unexpected offspring! Impressive work, Ray!
You are indeed the MASTER!!!! Fantastic bird. Guess the people on the dock aren't aware of the danger yet. The turning of the sign is priceless. Ticks in this area have mouths like your bird. Much love and HUGS!!!
great work
an impressive Peligator ! looks fantastic. i like your originell creativity,Ray. * BRAVO * #:O)
ROTF..LMFAO!!! This is too funny!!! Ray, you have one warped mind!!! That's what living in the cold weather did to your brain!!!
I bet they ARE always looking for a handout -- so they can munch on the hand! I'm not sure I like the idea that these things can silently fly over and then dip down for a taste of my cranium! Anyway, great work, and the sign is an excellent touch.
Perfect as usual!!! Well done work ... Bravo :)
Well done.
Master at his work table again....the lab must be busy...Excellent
Sooooooooo very funny :)
I heard the last person to feed one with a handout his hand was taken too and ate up. this is so super

Why is our state bird the mockingbird!?!?! Its should be the Peligator! :-) I bet these could be effective crowd controls for spring break. I love the way you framed it! Fantastic work!!
I love it!!! This is sooooo well done Dad!! You are the BEST. I love your little tale of how you got this picture too...hehehe Fantastic and one of your Best Rayburgimals!! :-) He looks mighty scary to me. Love the sign too! LOL Perfect in every way. ;-) V
I would suggest not to feed the birds...lol Excellent job. Aloha
I can only look on in amazement as you show us yet another strange critter from your imagination. I bet you have some doozy nightmares, lol. Wicked good critter. I also like the framing and the angled lettering on the sign. The little touches you incorporate always add to the finished image.
Your imagination seems to be endless. Love it.
