Sightseeing in The Everglades picture - I left the road to walk the short Otter Cave trail through a woody tropical hammock, a slight rise in the land that is just dry enough to sustain trees. I almost stepped on this little gator that was resting on the trail, but it scurried off into the brush along the side of the trail.
