Flora and Fauna of NJ

It is difficult enough when encountering wildlife to get photo's. Sometimes in the shock of actually finding a wild animal one forgets to get the camera out, or forgets to snap the picture or check the focus. Only after looking back do I actually see how lucky I was to get some of the shots I did. Other shots I wish I had been a littler quicker, or had my telephoto lens on, or focused, or had that damn bear moved just a tad to the right...
I love the Catskills. I will say that it is very difficult to pin down some of your NY wildlife for a photo. Maybe they're camera shy, or maybe I just have better luck in NJ. I have yet to photograph any animals, birds, amphibians or anything that isn't a plant for that matter in The Catskills. Maybe I haven't spent as much time there as I have tromping around NJ. This is a collection from my hikes, in no particular order.
