I included the first photo because it gave more of a feeling for just how small this clubtail actually was. It was working the sandy edge of the road at Turnbull.
Because a plant obscures the last segments this is kind of a case of "trust me" when I say that there was yellow on the sides of S7-S9 (bright yellow).
bluish facial skin noted... barely visible here. Seen much better through scope
This Alligator was a male and it was just chilling in the water. It looked like it just finished a big meal.
Anybody have information on this coat pattern? I know it’s a color morph, but just melanism?
