I’ve hiked a few miles of these super sketch levy trails during nesting season and the gators seemed to busy to see me. Today I hiked some trail the map wasn’t familiar with and found out about the level of gators in such a short distance. Gators are an everyday thing for me. Lake doctor is my trade. I seriously questioned my choices in taking this path but pushed through knowing the trail ahead was high and dry and likely held less stress. Moral of the story is stay on the marked trails. Respect nature.

you guys are BRAVE! Great video, love all the birds

@SOSASATSUNRISE 3 года назад

The gators don't pay much attention to people, thankfully. The birds are amazing. So many different kinds in one place. Incredible.

@travelingwoodsies2780 3 года назад

Whoa, crazy yall were so close to those gators! Glad yall got out safe!

@SOSASATSUNRISE 3 года назад

We were close but they did not mind us!

There is a spring in Volusia County (Daytona Beach is in this county) that we used to go swimming there. We have seen gators on the shore there without any issues and at times manatees were there but on the other side of the spring. I live in New Smyrna and we have a lot of ponds and I’m surprised no gators but so many awesome birds and some are 3-4 feet tall (sandhill cranes). We also have anhingas and they will sunbathe with their wings out for a few hours even. They are master divers. They are here in our ponds as well as egrets, lots of ducks (we now have about 30 new ducklings), hawks, eagles, geese, blue herons (look similar to the sandhill cranes), ibises (may be 30 or more at once), turtles, raccoons, and more.

Hi folks thanks for sharing your video, but I will like to recommend to both of you guys went you go trail like this, for few hours, I highly recommended were sneeker o biking shoes ,and use dry fit long leaves shirts, and at least 2 bottles of water per hr , However I personally enjoy your beautiful video. Thanks

Wow..I live in Apopka FL and I be never heard of that hike.

@aznstylepn0y 11 месяцев назад

Nice editing and quality of the video, what camera did you guys use to record the animals? Did you also use a tripod?

@citizenofcorona8783 Год назад

I was out near Lake Apopka this past March/April and I saw at least 15.

@MS-lj9zp Год назад

What trailhead did you start at was it Binion?

@riskyz2245 3 года назад

great video

@SOSASATSUNRISE 3 года назад

Glad you enjoyed it

@ConsidertheWonders 3 года назад

Cool ride. Haven’t heard of this one but we haven’t done any real exploring in Florida...if it’s not a theme park with a mouse..we don’t recognize it. Gotta change that!

@SOSASATSUNRISE 3 года назад

Lots of incredible wildlife and nature filled activities to do in Florida! Lake Apopka is free and would be a blast to see hanging out in the bed of a truck with snacks and a cooler full of drinks 😎

@davidanderson827 Год назад

I ride there about 5 days a week. It's a great place to escape to.

@joseruben777 2 года назад

I was there today with my son and we saw some kind of cat reminiscent to a lion without the fur... A year ago I spot a black bear close to the chemical plant next to the scenic road.

@freddieshermanpuff Год назад

Nice Job on your video. I got there at least once a week on my bike and or car. I am going to share on my facebook if that is OK.

@SOSASATSUNRISE Год назад

Absolutely!

@suvtraveler3587 3 года назад

Crazy

@SOSASATSUNRISE 3 года назад

Crazy but so much fun!

@golf4fame Год назад

I've done my car several times .. i live 10 minutes away, at most .. on a bike, did you ride 11 miles up and 11 miles back? Or just halfway?

@SOSASATSUNRISE Год назад

Our ride was only the 11 miles one way. We were lucky enough to get dropped off at one entrance and get picked up on the other side. Thanks for watching!

@freedomaipros Год назад

I have been there it is very scary

@mrsb6611 Год назад

When we did that a few years back and it was all fun and good. But I did have a nightmare about being ganged up by a bunch of gators a few nights later..lol! Still remember that dream like it was yesterday! Never again😅

@MrCaptainpope 2 года назад

Am about to become a Florida resident this year. Can anyone educate me on gators? Are they typically shy or aggressive? Do they crave and/or hunt humans regularly?

@magiccheeseball 2 года назад

You'll be fine as long as you don't get out of your car but you'll die of a heat stroke before the Gators get you anyway

@tk.8584 Год назад

Don’t bother them and they won’t bother you! Simple. Oh and at least every body of water here has at least one or two gators in them. Including the man made ones. But you’ll encounter more lizards then alligator honestly. They will get into your home or apartment here and there but very harmless and so small and cute. We just catch them (if we can) and bring them right back outside.

@MrCaptainpope Год назад

@@tk.8584 been here for 3 months now, everything youve said has been pretty accurate. lol. thanks!
