The first time I paddled through an alligator habitat here in the Lowcountry, it was a little spooky, until I noticed that the telltale eyeballs and snout would submerge or retreat each time. One time I happened upon a baby gator swimming alongside my kayak down the river; it was my fastest sprint ever!
