Critters on the course you ran into...

[NovaDiscHead]

Didn't have a run in with a critter, technically...

but I did come across this 6 foot long molted snake skin at Giles Run.

These are interesting. This one is definitly female! How do I know?? Because there are no males of this creature. They are all females.

What do they mate with then?

Turkeys=Evil

That is really surprising, because turkeys are usually scared of people.

Dude, turkeys are frickin' mean bastards when you come up on them. Might have posted this someplace else so if I'm repeating myself, excuse me.

I used to go trail running in Madison, Wi at the Arboretum, which had a whole "herd" of semi-wild turkeys. A couple of times I'd take a corner and be in the middle of them, and they would most certainly attack. They peck, and hard. It always kept me on my toes.

Whiptails are unisexual reproducers. A parthenogenic creature.

Lake Fenwick in Kent Washington has a pair of breeding Owls. I spent one evening photograping the male who was being overly protective of the momma owl who was feeding the young in the tree tops nearby. The owl swooped at me 2-3 times wanting me to keep my distance.

Riverside Park in Victoria, TX borders the Texas Zoo and there's a hole where you can be putting with red wolves running around in the background.



Also, here's an album of some other animals from the The LINKS at Quail Valley which included some of the temp holes we used at 2008 TxSDGC:
Disc Golf Animal Encounters.
Those ducks were totally hogging the teebox.

I once ran into an esquilax. It's a mythical creature with the head of a rabbit and the body of a rabbit.

Hate to say it!

I love the sport...but it attracts those critters relative to the PEOPLE OF WALMART website. Amazing who shows up when things are nearly free!opcorn:

Some people out there look like they have never come out of the house before....which is GREAT!...happy to see 'em....and their poor mom's are finally glad they got out of the basement to see this thing called discgolf....and that other thing......umm...what's it called?....oh yeah...LIFE!

Funny fact: Maine is the only state with no poisonous snakes.

Alaska and Hawaii. Although Hawaii has sea snakes. Main has to have some Rattlesnakes. I think there is even a Rattlesnake River there.
