This nonvenomous Eastern Milk Snake was playing possum on the cart path beyond the green on Hole 6, yesterday. Once it started moving, it slithered off into the grass and disappeared.

Sunbathing
A couple of weeks ago, some turkey vultures were hanging out in trees along the edge of Lake Tamarack. It was mostly cloudy, but everytime the sun peeked out, the turkey vultures would spread their wings (second photo below). As soon as the sun disappeared, the wings would go back down.

Overlooking the Green on 18
46 Golf View Court in Bent Tree just hit the market with an asking price of $325,000. This home should have spectacular views of the golf course and good views of the lake and mountains.

Doe
After not seeing a deer in Bent Tree for several weeks, I was in the right place at the right time to see this pregnant doe, yesterday. According the the Georgia DNR Wildlife Resources Division, “Most [fawns] are born between May and August with a peak in June.”
