Wildlife

I saw the bobcat in Tuxedo at the pond on Eagle Valley just off of Long Meadow Rd. It is basically down the road from the entrance to Ringwood. The picture is pretty blurry bc I was a good 100 ft away and used my phone.

Dustin, was that a coyote or a fox??

I saw a small coyote, almost looked like a fox, at Ryerson school yard 3 weeks ago.

This goat always wandering around outside the office like a lost dog. One time it actually got inside the building some how.

My interest in visiting Ringwood has been piqued!

If that goat needs a home.... think I can pass it off as a doggie to my neighbors?
 
Very large bug at Lewis Morris

Saw a few deer at Mercer. They were VERY skinny. Could see their ribs 🙁 surprising since there seems to be plenty of food for them. A few of them seemed undersized too.
 
You sure keep odd hours....yeah, there are tons, literally 100s of deer at MCP. There are some very big and healthy looking ones, including the 12 pointer I saw there earlier this year, who looked like a big cartoon deer he was so massive....and you are right, there are a handful there that look like they have some sort of wasting disease. They haven't allowed a hunt there in a long time, but should, there are too many in there.

At MCP, here is your deer advice...keep your chin tucked, so when they hit, you won't be knocked completely unconscious....where there is one, there is usually 5-10 more already surrounding you like some sort of deer-based zombie apocalypse, and use your sense of smell...about 90% of the time at MCP I smell them before I see them...they ALL need a bath (jeez deer, there is a lake right there, jump in it once in a while, will ya?)...

For me the wildlife hightlight at MCP is the Herons that hang out and fish in the creek on the northwest side of the Van Nest tract (dam wall to Quakerbridge rd section), they are always there and are some of the biggest birds you will ever get that close to. Did see a bald eagle there once too.
 
Of course there is our one black squirrel too. Maybe he relocated from Princeton because the taxes were too high? 😀
 
Only thing i've seen on trails was a bear and a crack head at eagle rock... Idk how he got there

I see turkeys every morning i've biked to work and by turkeys I mean like 30 damn turkeys gobbling away on the side of the road trying to cross
 
I've seen this big lookin bird that definitely is a predator because he was perched on a dead rabbit staring at me at Chimney Rock. some sort of eagle? shoulda snapped a shot
