Exotic Hardwoods

Viewed from the first lee of any one these 50 extraordinary links, Colombia is a paradise of golf courses. World class designers have situated courses in Andean plateaus more than 6500 feet above sea level: in the hardwood forested of the coffee-growing highlands, and on the Pacific and Caribbean coasts where the fairaways are bordered with exotic flora. In a country without seasons, the sport can be played every day of the year and on every kind of grass. This book gives a detailed look at courses in each part of the country, most near destination cities as affordable for North Americans as Florida and Arizona are. These photographs introduce a subtle, exotic goller's Eden, an ideal landscape, a perennial flowering season and a constant tropical climate. Useful information about yardage, pars and other features are also included, together with diagrams of each course.

This colorfully illustrated book tells the story of one of Florida's oldest and most popular tourist attractions. Built in 1936 in a lush hardwood hammock near Miami, Parrot Jungle and Gardens has entertained, enthralled, and educated more than 15 million visitors, and is home to more than a thousand stunning macaws, mynah birds, cockatoos, parakeets, and peacocks. Offering a glimpse into the tropical fantasy world that represented Florida tourism for postwar America, Parrot Jungle was one of hundreds of privately owned roadside attractions built during the thirties that featured Florida's natural splendor. Most have disappeared, making way for corporate-owned theme parks -- except for Parrot Jungle. An Austrian immigrant, Franz Scherr, and his family opened the attraction with a dozen macaws and parrots and an assortment of raccoons, opossums, and land crabs. It has survived a world war, gas shortages, devastating hurricanes, rampant development, bird robberies, and a change in ownership -- all while displaying several hundred species of subtropical birds which fascinate visitors with their intelligence, exotic beauty, distinct personalities, and remarkable capacity to mimic human voices. Some have been with the attraction longer than any employee -- 50 years or more. Over the years, they appeared on television's Miami Vice, posed with Jackie Gleason, Winston Churchill, and Miss America, and stole the show at the Florida exhibit at the 1964 World's Fair. Miami's Parrot Jungle and Gardens traces the history of a pioneer attraction from the golden age of "Mom and Pop" tourism, an enduring South Florida institution that will continue to draw appreciative crowds for decades to come.

Exotic (hadron) - Exotic hadrons are subatomic particles made of quarks and bound by the strong interaction that are not predicted by the simple quark model. That is, they do not have the same quark content as ordinary hadrons: exotic baryons have more than just the three quarks of ordinary baryons, and exotic mesons do not have one quark and one antiquark like ordinary mesons.

Exotic animal veterinarian - An Exotic animal veterinarian is a veterinarian who has undertaken additional training to treat exotic animals. Many exotic animals such as ferrets, rabbits, guinea pigs, small rodents, etc.

Exotic terrane - An exotic terrane is a piece or fragment of continent that has broken off from its parent continent and become accreted to another continent. Thus it is exotic to the continent that it has become a member of, and is not native to that continent and did not become accreted to the continent as a newly formed terrane, but as an existing one from another continent.

Exotic pet - An exotic pet is an unusual creature kept as a pet, sometimes for the express purpose of having a pet which is unique. The definition is an evolving one; some rodents, reptiles, and amphibians have become firmly enough established in the world of animal fancy to no longer be considered exotic.
