This fall we participated in #SnapShotUSA using our #cameratraps to document #mammal species in #Newburgh and #BlackRockForest. It was a great opportunity to help Newburgh Schools studentsĀ see what lives around the City Of Newburgh, NY, including #coyote, #bobcat, and #greyfox!

I really want to to dig more into these potential relationships. If you're looking for a #deer #ecology project or data, reach out! We can find #funding.

#Birdfeeding can be an excellent winter pastime, but if you leave them out too long, you’ll attract hungry #bears in spring! Our #cameratraps suggest your 🐦 feeders are bear-safe between mid-January and mid-March, so you can avoid attracting 🐻 to your backyard.

#SnapShotUSA is an easy, fun way to contribute to large-scale #ecology research. Perfect for getting #students of all ages involved. 2024 season is coming up quick so go sign up and check out their loaner program.

Another interesting article by Ben Goldfarb on one of the understudied linear #infrastructure behemoths outside: enough fencing to reach the sun! #wildlife #movements biographic.com/entangled/

Stumbled across this #Ambystoma maculatum while checking #cameratraps inside Black Rock Forest yesterday. Any #herp folks know why it was out? #fieldwork

'Tis the season for #cameratrapping at Black Rock Forest for me. Here's a nice sequence of a #bobcat mother and nearly full-grown kitten. Atypically interested in the lure. #wildlife #ecology

Congrats to the NYSDOT on their $324k award from the #WildlifeCrossingsPilotProgram and happy to say I had a small part in it! This allows us to develop a toolkit for identifying #roadkill and #connectivity opportunities. Safer roads! I look forward to working with you all!

Lost coyote? Enjoyed our first good #snow tracking session inside Black Rock Forest. This #coyote seems to check out our kiosk. Low #animal activity, but scenic.
