White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus)Observer
margopatrickDescription
These footprints were on the edge of the lake. There is no sign of the animal coming up on land. Would love if someone could identify - suspect it is a deer, as with all the snow, they are wandering around.

American Goldfinch (Spinus tristis)Observer
margopatrickDescription
Two things here. First - there seems to be a date issue on photos. This was 2024-02-16, not the date that is posted. Second - Another cat retrieval. Think the cat was innocent as there were no signs of cat damage. Suspect it was a victim of the snowstorm.

Dovekie (Alle alle)Observer
margopatrickDescription
Two things here. First - there seems to be a date issue on photos. This was 2024-02-16, not the date that is posted. Second - This bird which I believe is a dovekie was presented to us by a cat. There is no way that he caught it himself, so must have retrieved the carcass from somewhere. We have a lake in front of us and the Atlantic to the east, so suspect the traveler was a victim of the snowstorm.
