Bird Runs Across Water To Escape Alligator
A common gallinule runs across the water to escape a nearby alligator at Green Cay Nature Center in Boynton Beach, Florida. Unlike most waterbirds, gallinules have long toes that allow them to walk on floating vegetation. The species is known for its loud, cackling calls that often echo through wetlands.
