There never is a morning checking the course, that I don't see some of the wildlife living on the course. whether it's deer,coyotes,beaver,otter, fox, turkeys, hawks, or all the different birds. The last week I have been watching the blue herons on the front side pairing up for mating season . There are about four pairs of adult herons and several juveniles, that are on the course. The adults have been hanging out in the top of the pine tree behind #8 green early in the morning. The adults have also been working on the nests in the trees at #5 tee along the river as well. The last four years a number of you have mentioned seeing the osprey fishing the lakes,and mistaking it for and eagle. Well I was surprised this morning to see a bald eagle setting on top of a dead tree just across the river. The osprey is a big bird, but this guy is huge with white head and tail very visible from 500 yards away. I didn't get a picture yet, but will be trying for a shot. He just moved to the top of my picture list.
