We went to Umass Boston today because my son who is going back to a full semester of school wanted to show me the campus.
I got a new lifer. An American Oystercatcher.

I went out today looking for wildlife. At Fraiser Point at the Schoodic section of Acadia National Park a pair of bald eagles just flying around. Bald eagles mate for life and their chicks are off doing their thing so I expect this pair is just enjoying themselves.
Still at Schoodic, when the tide is down you can cross to Little Moose Island.
I was about to cross and saw on the opposite side this red fox. It was well across on the opposite side and going along the intertidal zone until it went up into the bushes.

Does it count as wildlife if it lives in a purpose built box in your backyard?
This is the best photo I could get at 5:30 this morning! It was still dark!

I didn't get a lot of wildlife photos this trip to Maine that ends tomorrow.
Probably my best two are this groundhog and a first for me bird, a Northern Parula.

I stupidly didn't get a photo. I don't know why I didn't think to get my phone.
Anyway, It's dark out and lightly snowing. Earlier I had put 4 pizza boxes out the basement door to the driveway to take to the bins tomorrow morning.
The basement door is glass all so we can see what's going on. I was sitting here at the computer and Walle and Boo were going hyper hyper. I went over and an Opossum was wrestling with a pizza box. It looked a bit like this from 2022 a photo out the door with an Opossum cleaning off a plate of food. Imagine that the plate is a pizza box and he has it gripped by the mouth trying to pull it from the window.

I haven't been in this thread for ages. Forgotten how much joy I get from it.

I was scrolling back and it looks to me that a bunch of posts are missing. 2024 to 2025. Strange.

I was at the state park today. I believe that this huge turtle is an endangered Northern Red-Bellied Cooter. They are rare in Massachusetts and mainly found in southern MA in Plymouth county.
Those are adult painted turtles on the left. The big boy is easily as big as a big snapping turtle but is clearly not a snapping turtle. Looks a lot like a painted turtle with a few differences besides his great hugeness.
I estimate that these photos were taken from about 450 feet away.
