"Wonderful sighting! You're probably right. I've seen herons following cormorants; grebes following gators; and Great Egrets hunting next to alligators-in that case hard to tell who was flushing prey for whom. 🐊 🦉 To see a larger gator/egret image: www.rickubis.com/rick/pano_17..."

"Medium shot of a very shallow lake. The heads and backs of at least 10 alligators show at the surface. 4 large white birds with long necks (Great White Egrets) are wading among them, while another Egret flies close to the surface of the water. This lake was drying out, and both species were hunting the food trapped there."

"View of a lake with slightly rippled water. A mat of duckweed shows in the background. An alligator is swimming towards us, but angling from our right to our left. The gator's more than half of the gator's head is exposed, along with the top of its back, and the base of its tail. A very small, duck-shape bird is following the alligator. The bird is a Pied-Billed Grebe. When an alligator is cruising slowly, grebes will sometimes swim out to follow them--or eve circle around them."
