Always pisses me off when some dude tells me about how he saw a copperhead and smashed it with a rock. ****ing chuckers. they are almost never copperheads either.

Last Saturday (day before Easter) I was playing Woodway Park in Waco with my Dad and saw an osprey circling overhead around hole 10. The coolest thing was it had a HUGE fish in its talons! Made me glad I carry some binocs with me in my bag.....

Still some snow on our course up here in Whistler B.C Canada , but I'm sure the bears will be waking up soon . Had to call my puppy (6 months old at the time) to the 20th tee box last summer and leash her up , quietly , so a bear could wander thru ! She didn't even see it ! But as long as ur not between a mother and cub(s), bears don't bother discers . I really don't want to find a cougar out here tho !
Depends on how many kids she has.

A few weeks back me, wifey and dog were up playing on one of the courses up by Smithville lake. Somewheres around 14 or 15, I look down the fairway and see a little black something up by the next tee. Just trash, I thought, not to worry.... I'll just pick it up when I get up there. Well worry, b/c black piece of trash turned out to be notorious Mr. Skunk laying low in the grass about 20 feet from the next tee. I thought for sure he must've been hit by a car or something, b/c he was laying really still out in the wide open in the middle of the afternoon and the tee wasn't very far from the road. Wrong again. Me and the dog crept right up on him, thinking he was dead, but NOPE. Little dude popped up and started running toward us! It was all I could do to stop my dog from running all up on our new little friend. She's a coon hound and loves chasing a na'er do well woodland creature. Well needless to say we had to divert around that hole (which woulda been my first ace ever, of course). Crazy thing is we crept back around there on the way out and the little dude was still hanging tough in that same spot.
Didn't card that first ace, but didn't get sprayed by rabid skunk, so I think I kinda came out ahead on that one.

He might have but I was too stoked to care. This guy was huge! So badly wished I had had a camera.
At Lakeview Park/Sarasota a few weeks ago, there were thousands of anole and pine lizards skittering everywhere you looked.

I threw my eagle off to the right of the fairway at black butte lake dgc a few weeks ago, and as I was about to reach down for it, came within a couple feet of a decent sized rattle snake sunning itself next to a hole in the ground.. I came at the disc from the safest angle possible, and snatched it up.. Kind of a sketchy moment

Finally saw the large bull snake that lives near 16's basket at Jellystone on Saturday. He must of recognized someone trying to get their phone ready because he bailed down his hole. I'm guessing he was 5' or so and at his thickest about the size of a red bull can. And goats, always the goddamn goats, the camp ground likes to place their pen between 16 and 12's fairways. They also have kids go feed the baby ones on the weekends, If there is an object that my disc is more attacted to then that goat pen, I haven't found it. I can be throwing great right up until I shank it into the goat pen.

I saw some armadillos at the IDGC tournament in Georgia this weekend. Weird looking animals.
Couldn't sleep so starting at the beginning of this thread looking at the pics. And after seeing below, sleep shall never come... Thanks Midnight :|
