I wish I had my measurer with me. This is probably the second biggest pike of my life.

I've never seen this behavior before. I thought it was a turtle at first glance. It stayed in this position until I had completely passed by, them emerged an flew toward the clutch observed nearby.

Posting this for my mom. The writer of the article, photographer, and birdwatcher.

This owl was way out of it's normal range. Strangely, there was another in Chautauqua county New York on the same day. First Pennsylvania record in 100 years.

Found out of the water under debris in the wrack line

This chicken snake was in our barn eating the eggs.

7 Can be seen in the picture, but there may have been more. We didn't want to disturb them and have them scatter.

daytime sighting in tree

Atypical buck. Low fence.

Male White-tailed Deer

Tan color phase.

The unbelievable amelanistic individual was found by Eli Bieri. Just about the coolest thing I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. No surprise that this has become my most favorited observation

Leucistic? The pigment in the ocular orbitals is making me hesitate on saying albino

Pretty sure this is a hybrid rattlesnake. I believe it is between Crotalus ornatus and Crotalus viridis as both occur in the area and this snake displays characteristics of both.

I've seen this melanistic fawn three times recently, most recently in my lawn. Including a photo with its sibling for contrast.

Piebald Deer

Litter admitted for rehabilitation. Approximately 3 days old at intake. Tagged location is approximate original find site. This is observation 1/6.

Found on a running trail. Atypical coloration and patterning for this species.
