We saw a fox run across the 1st fairway today. Didn't have my phone in my pocket to get a pic.

Bumping this back up. Ran into this lady the other day. While it's not rare to see a Gator on the course, if you look closely or zoom in, this one had a baby sitting on her head. It was awesome to see.

This little one was on the course a couple of weeks ago. Must have been born a little late.
Forgot to post what happened to me a couple weeks back... Playing a nice course in Southern Wisconsin, and on the 15th a fox stole my golf ball. Let me chip onto the green past him, then as i was walking up to hit my next shot, he ran up and grabbed it and scurried off... not sure how to mark that down.

The battle of supremacy. Not sure what was going on, but the ducks were moving in and the cats were not impressed.

I promise not to murder Canadan.
Playing Thunder Hill in Madison, OH before it shut down a few years ago, we walk up to the green, and there is a big crayfish with both claws raised and open, ready to rumble with all of us. He actually charged my cousin, lol.
Still haven't seen anything as cool as those black headed squirrels down in Alabama.

Me and shakey saw a black headed squire,l yesterday, and he witnessed how an eagle kills a fish when a fish dropped from the sky 10 ft from him and then the eagle picked it back up lol

Not on the golf course, but two ducks wandering around our neighborhood this morning, really weird, as there isn't a body a water anywhere close to us!

Saw a really pissed off deer chasing a golf cart and running in circles in the middle of the fairway a few months back, couldn't get my phone out fast enough to grab any video sadly.
I have two favorite encounters.
First one of the local muni courses in Madison had a family of foxes that lived off the corner of a dogleg par 4. They used to run out and steal golf balls on occasion, which really pissed me off. Good golf balls were expensive in college.
The other was lucky enough to be partially captured on camera. This was last May in Marquette, Michigan at Greywalls. The 7th hole has this massive drop off from the back tees. Just as I hit my tee shot a pair of bald eagles flew across the fairway, with my ball appearing to split them. You can just make out the first eagle about 2/3 of the way up on the right hand side of the photo. The drive was in the air for 7-8 seconds, and the whole scene was just awesome. I can't wait to get back up to play the course again in June.

Yesterday I hit a worm burner off the tee and my ball flew right at the head of a goose. Literally a split second be4 the goose would have been hit he put his head back to ruffle his back feathers. The ball missed him by an inch. I was so nervous. I was then ridiculed by my playing partners for the rest of the day for being so concerned over almost hitting a goose lol.
