I Hear You Knocking.. - Alligator at the door

Have you sometimes seen a picture or an image or hear a song, and instantly link it to something you have seen before?

During the recent Bangkok floods, a picture of a crocodile literally standing at a door instantly got me linking it to this song by Dave Edmunds - I Hear You Knocking. Funny stuff! Give the song a listen. It's a good ole rocking number.

Dave Edmunds with Jools Holland Rhythm & Blues Band - New Year 2009


This is Mr Croc in question. I hear you knocking, but you can't come in..

On looking for the source of this image, found that this wasn't in Bangkok but rather in Jamestown, western New York. This 3-foot alligator was found wandering in someone else’s yard. The resident immediately reported the incident around 7:45 a.m to the police. The authorities and the animal control officers came rushing to the place and were able to catch the alligator. When ask, residents didn’t know where it come from or how long had been wandering in the area. Here is the source, Alligator knocking on your door.

Apparently, alligators are known to do that - knock on doors. Here is another instance of one such spectacle..'Darling, there's an alligator at the door'.

This is one of the funniest posts I've seen in a long time! Is it for real?! I thought we had precocious, obnoxious wild animals in Africa, but nothing beats this! (^O^)

Dora, smart they are. And to think they could stand upright too!

Rurousha, LOL! We too have precocious and obnoxious animals here too. Only thing is, they are not wild. The clever mouse-in-the-house gets the honour.

Yea, incredible in a scary way. I can't even imagine a smaller animal apart from dogs and cats knocking ;))

Rad, I know what you mean. A knock esp at night gets one's imagination going, doesn't it? I've heard of strange tales.
