Addition to my fly-tying room

[James Smith]

Living on a lake in Central Florida, I see Alligators every time I take my kayak out to do some fishing, so I thought I'd add a representation of this iconic animal of Florida to my fly-tying room. I found this beautiful skull at an antique mall and had to have it. As I mentioned, I see Alligators all the time, but none nearly as large as this big old boy must have been. To give you an idea of the size, the chest it's sitting on is a shade under 24" long and that is a full 12oz can of Coke sitting next to it. Alligators are amazing animals and as a nature guy, I enjoy seeing all animals in this beautiful state. This is just a temporary home for "baby" until I can get him set up in my man cave. https://gifyu.com/image/SnLVG
