On Friday, June 14th, a member of the Nicklaus Golf
Maintenance team noticed a Red-tailed Hawk on the ground between #1 and #9 and
called for help.
The hawk was being
choked by his dinner, a snake that had wrapped himself completely around the
hawk and was squeezing for all he was worth.
When members of the maintenance team saw the Hawk blink, realizing he
was still alive, they began to try to wrestle the snake off of the hawk using
whatever tools they had available to them.
Although they had to kill the 6 + foot snake to free the hawk, he was
able to fly to his perch once again.
Thanks to the member of the Nicklaus Golf Maintenance team who, with
quick thinking and a little ingenuity, were able to save this beautiful
creature!
