My opinion - unless you're a small dog or a child, its very very unlikely. Coyotes have been present and prolific for a long time now and attacks on adults are all but nonexistent. That having been said - the coyote/wolf mix does hold some mystery behaviorally because the possibility exists...

I was also lucky enough to stumble across a group of young coyotes last week and again today . . . super awesome experience. I managed to photograph at least four, but I believe there were 5 young coyotes in the group. Most of the shots are like these - running away. Though their curiosity...

“There’s no automatic waiver,” Martin said. “It will be applied on a case-by-case basis.” Yes. Only the cases that throw enough money at corrupt politicians will get a waiver. I was just thinking that NJ environmental policy needed a loophole big enough to drive a WALMART through.

Hmm . . . well I've never actually heard that. Here's what Cornell has to say:

Very cool! Nomatter the species, observing undisturbed animal behavior is always fascinating!

This year hasn't been a great duck year. Probably having something to do with less lake-freezing. I've noticed a general lack of them all winter this year . . . Also, while robins do migrate from up north (the ones with bright plumage are the northern ones), our resident robins never leave...

So harassment of an endangered species = burying them alive? I certainly hope a natural disaster rolls through and harasses his farm soon. I kind of get your point, Guy . . . but it still doesn't quite make sense to me once the article is read (this thread had like 130 views when i started...

Thanks again everyone! Of course I don't mind! Thank you and enjoy.

not sure I understand the thinking behind these responses . . . this man's actions directly contributed to severe habitat degradation because he didn't want to pay what it costs to go through the proper channels. He knew the turtles were there and still went ahead and cut trees on a creek...

to be honest its probably been that long since a Gyr was seen in the area . . . last invasion was what . . . 2005?

I know I'm pretty annoyed about that . . . wanted to make a trip out for it tomorrow, but I'm not doing that without some good confirmation first. Already got the snowy, but sadly I can't go for the finch, as the homeowners don't want visitors on the weekend.

Also a Gyr in PA so I hear . . .

USDA has been doing some biomass studies in the area for a few years now . . . could be them. I also remember hearing something about a possible SPB infestation as well as some other pest that I don't quite recall (wasn't familiar with it, so i forgot . . . ), so it could be someone (anyone...

I was gonna make a comment about you being mean to the shoobies . . . then recalled that I've given similarly hilarious directions to bennies nearer my own beaches. It usually starts with "get on 195 west".

I see arrogance. And in that case - exactly as this one - it was inept surveying (signed off by the commission) that accounted for the "lack" of snakes. The "2" snakes involved in walmart were alone because the environmental consultants didn't do their jobs. When done half-assedly, "proof of...

This was just approved last night. Despite previous records from the area that indicate the T&E survey to determine absence was not comprehensive. http://manchester-nj.patch.com/articles/amid-resident-protest-planning-board-approves-master-plan-amendments

Always a nice place to visit. I've never seen the boardwalk so flooded.

yeah its the same famous snowy. I hope to get better shots of one at the shore before winter's end. Now I just need one to show up.

thanks again. Oh and Al you're dead on with everything except the snowy. Its immature plumage. Blue-spots occupy a very limited range in North Jersey . . . anything else you find will be a jefferson hybrid. Oh and yeah that flooding shot is HDR shot, but the fact that you had to ask is...

Thanks guys. Oh and I almost forgot to post my favorite recent find:
