Critters on the course you ran into...

Being a northerner, this was a bit outside my "normal" this morning...

You saw a gator in the water around Pennsylvania!?!?!?

Ran into this box turtle at Leigh Farm Park today. I believe they have protected status here in NC.

No, he was playing Hover Links on Hilton Head Island, SC.

Not much of a course, very little maintenance since it was put in. They put two or three baskets backed up very near that little waterway. The day I was there, it was very murky, almost black.

Haha noooooooo, I was (am still) in South Carolina. I know locals aren't fazed by them, but it caught me a bit by surprise! There's another course I've played down here that used to have a small (probably much bigger now) gator that would sun itself on the shore of pond in a wide open space where you could steer clear. This course, though, the water comes up to the edge of the circle on three of the nine baskets.

If you're into chelonian voyeurism, and if we're being honest, who isn't.

To my knowledge all native turtles in NC are protected in that trading/selling etc is restricted. The common Eastern Box Turtle is not protected due to low population or habitat issues however. [emoji106][emoji41]

Nah, it's more like turtles don't just **** you sideways, they go all the way to upside down.

Are those the caterpillars that can supposedly portend how severe the coming winter will be?

I'm 47 and can remember the last 40 or so winters, and eastern Pennsylvania just had its most mild winter 2019-2020 in my life. I seriously hope that we see the thick fuzzy caterpillars that supposedly forecast a good winter.

Whatever that is grosses me out.

It's a Cicada, or sewing bug. It is the bug that makes the long, loud buzzz in the late summer evenings.

Tis a nasty, gnarly bug though. I don't see them all that often. I am guessing they are generally in trees.
