A Young Peregrine on the Ascent
Yesterday in the Mohonk Preserve near New Paltz, N.Y., Chris Nadareski of the NYC DEP released four young rehabbed peregrines,…
A friend who lives in Allendale near the Ramsey border, discovered a bear had been at his feeders on Sunday night.
The baffle did not seem to slow the bear up much.
This is the first report I've heard since last spring.
A comprehensive post about birds and feeders — and a bear pic or two — is here.
BTW, folks who have had their feeders torn down in the past year are advised to take them in at dusk and put them up again the next morning to reduce the temptation (and the damage).
(Thanks, Ken!)
