Critters on the course you ran into...

[foxdawg10]

Anyone can design a "birdie hole". What's it take to design an "eagle hole"?

Amazing capture

My house is about 300' away, across the pond. The eagle was sitting right next to the water, and for a while I thought it was the neighbor's black-and-white dog down there. I stepped out on my porch with a camera and flushed it -- and luckily for me, it flushed in the direction of the basket, so I caught it flying by and could place it "on the course".

Looks like its got some woodland critter (or maybe a fish) in its beak.

It had been sitting the edge of the pond, so anything's possible. But that might also be the wingtip of the far wing that we're seeing. It's not real sharp because I wasn't really prepared.

Skunk
Bob Cat
Water Moccasin
Hawk eating a Prairie Dog.
Loads of Deer
Fox
Several different Garter snakes
All sorts of turtles.

I keep looking for rattle Snakes when playing West Texas and New Mexico, but no luck.
Been looking for alligators when playing East TX to MS, still no luck.

Then I have hit while driving to play courses.
1 Raccoon off US 75 in Oklahoma
2 Deer - off OK-31 and North of Dodge City KS (that one totaled my car)

I hit two birds on the same round the other day. Kinda bummed me out but I got over it.

Today I played the back nine with a rando (Matt) and something sprayed or **** on him. I have him a towel, but it was weird. Smelled like ammonia, thick like honey, sticky. The towel ended up getting it on me and everything else. Then a bird **** on my hat.

I drove home and got a shower.

Not saying the drones that hit Moscow yesterday came from Ukraine and not saying the birds that befouled your round were retaliating, but karma sux man.

Blendon Woods basket #17!!!

Yeah there's a prescription for disaster. Many years ago, I was playing through the woods and got swarmed. I am guessing I hit a hive on my drive. I was recently at Dauberton and could hear a lot of buzzing in the woods between the fairways of #1 and #5. I steered well clear.

Saw 5 of these little guys by the tee of hole 18 at Warrenton pool park DGC today. Just glad mom wasn't around.

Saw this little one Waller Mill Park Williamsburg, Va long tee #13 this morning. Was making so much noise in the bush, though it might be a snake.

No photos, but last week we discovered that hornets had built a nest in one of our benches. Just a simple bench, a board on top of cinder blocks, and apparently they really liked the hollow space we provided.

No photos, but we did announce it on our Facebook page, with a comment that for the people who don't think our course is exciting enough, we weren't going to reveal which bench was infested.

@ Creeping Creek DGC, this dragonfly landed on SewerBill who also was dressed like Ace Ventura, then came and hung out next to me for a bit. Hope he's eating well on skeeters and deerflies.

That could be REALLY bad.

Picture sucks. I tried to get closer but it bailed. I've played a number of courses but I think this was the first time seeing a squirrel in a basket.

 

[DavidSauls]

Ah, that's nothing. We had paper wasps build a nest inside the chains of a basket once, elevating the term "death putt" to a whole new level.

Momma was laying eggs in the middle of the fairway on hole #9 at Boulder woods a few weeks ago.
