Hello, Zelda!

Osprey Cove Members; meet Zelda, our alligator. She lives in the pond on Hole 14.While Zelda appears to be a friendly reptile, we wanted to take a minute not only to introduce you, but also to remind you of some basics.

We live in Georgia; where we share the land with animals, reptiles, amphibians, and all other sorts of wildlife. This includes wild hogs, snakes, alligators, etc. We ask you to use your best judgment when looking for your golf balls, whether it is in bushes or near a pond and also remain alert while biking, walking, and fishing.

As a general rule, alligators nor snakes will bother you if you don't bother them. If you should encounter either, it is suggested you keep your distance and do not try to provoke them. Please do not attempt to touch them, catch them, or feed them.

Should an alligator become a problem and you feel threatened, please notify Kristy in the HOA office. Alligators are not removed from Osprey Cove unless they become a threat to the safety and well-being of the community.
