Old Alligators in Love

Some cheerful news in the Guardian today (well I liked it.) A study of alligators in a wildlife reserve in Louisiana has revealed that up to 70% of female alligators will remain with the same male for many years. I think that’s a nice thought, the idea of an old alligator couple lying on the banks of the river together.

Trying to prepare for November, I'm getting the feeling that I might end up with a cast of thousands.
