Paynes Prairie State Park


This past weekend, we went to Payne's Prairie. We heard it was a good place to see Alligators, and so of course we had to try it out. We went on a couple of hikes and had an excellent day.


Here are Jon and Nick up on the lookout -- looking for wild horses. Little did we know, we'd get awfully close to the horses on our way back to the car.



On the second hike we saw a couple of alligators. Okay, we saw TONS of alligators. HUGE alligators. The biggest ones we've seen yet. And this is the closest we've ever been to them. It was a little scary at times.




Nick and his new pal, Al.

Of course, there were also wonderful birds. The music was amazing.

Check out this busy mama!
