Rattlesnakes are out



The last three weeks we have seen high temperatures in the low 90's, and with that comes our rattlesnakes out to bask in the sun and make their way across  the wet grass in the early mornings.


Please be aware of this when you are in or around areas of tall grass and rock walls.

Snake proof chaps

The maintenance staff does where the appropriate protection whenever they have to go in the native grass to do any work like spraying weeds or weed trimming.  This year we have seen a larger population early in the year compared to last year.  Staff is seeing about 6 snakes on average each morning, probably brought on by the warmer and drier spring.

Please be aware when you are looking for arrant shots in the tall native grass and carry your 5 iron with you.
