Robin Gallows! If ever there was a true picture of a "gallows bird", this is it. But the real robin puzzle is, how could this have happened? Known facts: It was a clear and windy afternoon in spring. The picture was taken at about 3:30 pm EST. Prime nesting season for robins. Speculation: The robin found the loose string. Picked it up for nesting material and flew to the wire. The wind wrapped the one end around the wire. The robin had hold of an end that unfortunately had a loop in it, or a noose...as it turned out. Then the robin took off...but quickly reached the end of the string, and personal tragedy struck!

Coon Party. A family of raccoons spent the night feasting on garbage in a campground dumpster in Piseco, NY. After the photo session, they were able to exit when we leaned a long branch into the dumpster so they could climb out.
