A fawn in the morning, a bear in the evening…does it get any better than this?

August 7, 2018 – a fawn sighting in the morning

A juvenile red-headed woodpecker was making a ruckus on the golf course one day (first picture below), until the parent fed it (second photo below).

Click here for a related previous post.  407 Thunder Ridge in Bent Tree closed earlier this week for $825,000.  A quick search of the Pickens County Tax Assessor records (looking all the way back to the turn of this century), shows this to be a record high price for a home in the Bent Tree community (at least for the last 18 years).  The home sits on an incredibly unique and beautiful piece of property.  Serenity now…

Bent Tree’s Lake & Wildlife Partners Meeting will be held Saturday morning, August 4th at 9:30 in the Club Tamarack Recreation Room (come at 9:00 if you want coffee and doughnuts).

At the meeting, there will be a brief introduction of Bent Tree’s new Volunteer Citizens Emergency Response Team (VCERT) initiative.  VCERT training is scheduled for Thursday, August 9th 6:00pm – 9:00pm at Club Tamarack Fireside Lounge.  The training session is open for all who want to attend.

The agenda for Saturday’s L&W meeting includes “Fish Survey and Recommendations” under New Business, and the scheduled program is “Talking Turkey” presented by the Wildlife Committee chairman.

I’ve never noticed the reservation/cancellation policy before, but it’s understandable for this type of special event.
