Spitfire,
I currently have a 6' Gator living in the culvert outside of my apartment! Unfortunately I haven’t managed to get as good a photo of it as you have though, the gator only appears to want to stick his head out of the drainage pipe. Maybe I’ll pop down later and give him a prod of encouragement with a big stick!!

WX Man,
The only other thing I can warn you about is to look out for Tortoise’s (not Turtles as all yanks insist on calling them!) on the runways and taxyways! I don’t know about Naples, but in Fort Pierce on several occasions now I have had to stop to let them cross, I’ve even had to go-around once because one decided to cross as I was over the numbers!

Hope you enjoy flying in Florida, I am!
