In Florida, golf course patrons have to watch out for both big-ass alligators and big-ass alligators eating big-ass turtles.

Someone at the Heritage Golf and Country Club near Melbourne caught this video of a curious 'roo invading the course's chipping green over the weekend. It seems the furry visitor noticed that the course's flagpoles needed some tending to.

Helpful fellow -- other than interrupting what appeared to be a spectacular day on the links, of course.

At least he seems friendlier than the monstrously buff kangaroo caught stalking Brisbane suburbanites in May. That guy never took it upon himself to help with any flagpoles or yard-work.
