Golfers had to wait for the gator to move before they could play through.

Well, I doubt they minded too much... I mean, golfers are not what one would call the most active people, are they? They go from hole to hole in a little cart and even have somebody else carry their 'sticks' - talk about lazy :lol:

A woman needed help to retrieve her cell phone from a pelicans stomach. The woman was giving a lot of attention to it and the pelican must have thought it was a good thing to have.

My son, Charles, has been amusing himself to see what animals will come to the food he puts out on his side walk. He basically has squirrels and crows that will sit on the banister waiting. My car has not moved for a long time. When he moved it to save his grass he found a big turtle hole. I guess they will eat the same things.

I over feed Jake the boxer in case he is extra hungry on some days. Any thing he does not eat his opposum will come at night to finish.

Poor Jake has been loosing his food to vultures. He was barking one day like he does when something is in his pen. When I went out he was barking at vultures fighting over his food. I ran them off but there was no food left. I don't know if he got it or they did.

It happened again and I went out and run them off.

Today I stood and guarded him so he could eat. There were 6 vultures on the fence with a couple more circling.

It looks like Jake is going to have to have protection just to eat. I can't believe that they ran off a boxer of his size.
