Fort Drum Wildlife

Jan 18

Open
I was in a bit of a nostalgic mood. These are deep throwbacks to my time in the BVI in 2008. All shot on my old Canon film slr with classic kodak film. The photos are incredibly without edits and show the natural beauty. 

Sometimes I really miss that surprise of getting your photos back after developing and discovering the shots that worked out.

I've been going through some of our photos of study fawns for data analysis today. Both of these fawns survived well into adulthood.

I am working on an exam for my field bio students and am going back through my personal photo collections. These are some throwbacks to 2014 when I was working in Alberta, Canada of short-tailed weasels in their beautiful winter coats.

My favorite living project deer, doe 137, out with her fawns at sunset yesterday. I've know her since she was a baby fawn herself in 2018.  She is always a bit defensive of her kids. She makes the funniest faces.

Lots of #wildlife out and about today as #fall  sets in.  We saw a beautiful melanistic grey squirrel, a Northern Flicker (my favorite bird), a striped skunk, an American Crow, many Wild Turkeys, and much more.

Every year it always shocks me how quickly the winter coats come in. Last week I still had some fuzzy fawns and chestnut adults. 5 days later after a cold few days they've all changed over to their darks.

A very curious short-tailed Weasel from Fort Drum.  I was radio-tracking a deer Saturday night and this like guy followed me for 5 minutes climbing up and down trees to get a better look at me.  It was very entertaining. He was quite friendly.  Short-tailed weasels (Mustela erminea) are also known as ermines or stoats.

Doe 137 was out with her new family including fawn 145.  I always like getting photos of them with military equipment behind them. It is a reminder that their home is Fort Drum.

Great hike today @letchworthstatepark  with @carlaafeehan .  We did about 11.4 miles.  The park is nicknamed the grand canyon of New York.  We were rained on heavily midway, but it was a great day.

Checking on some of our study deer and their fawns tonight while darting. We clearly have some bucks that are growing up to be quite large. I always love this time of year when all of the deer are more active be as the fawns become more confident.

An awesome coyote family we saw while darting deer tonight in #fortdrum.  The pups were really playful jumping around. The mom was really cautious. These photos were all taken at a quarter mile and the mom never stopped watching us.

A busy day in the field as we approach the annual fawn birth peak.  This fawn's mother has been stuck outside of the Fort Drum fence line for 8 months but 3 days ago began a long journey back to her traditional fawn birthing grounds including walking on the interstate.

Fawn 145 captured and released this afternoon. A clumsy little fellow. He was born to doe 137, a 2018 study fawn. We now have had 4 generations from this family. Captured across from the @usofortdrum building.
