Back yard critters
Good things come to those who bait.

Not sure. I may have been wrong in my Bobcat decision as head/neck dining isn’t considered normal for them. It is for Great Horned Owls and weasels, two local residents. Since it was a midday event, I’d lean towards a weasel. Admiral reported bird face plant marks on the window close to the crime scene, which may have made this a scavenger event. Who knows what actually happened?
Whatever it was, the carcass will disappear over night for sure.

Maybe a Moose stomped it?

On Wednesday, my next door neighbor texted me a photo of a big azz Bobcat he's been seeing around his house:
I've yet to see Bobbie, but I confidently say that he was over at my place between 11:00 - 13:00 dining on the head and neck of a ruffed grouse!!
Dang, just looked at an enlarged photo of the carcass and it looks like the head is there, underneath the body. Will have to go out to inspect later!!
awesome cat
Maybe a Moose stomped it?
No, window crash probably cause of death, then WTF knows who dined on the head and neck? Guard fox or Bobbie will grab the carcass tonight.

Looks like the above Eagle was waiting for his turn at today's Eagle Thanksgiving. They were making a racket today and I found a couple of adults working on a seal carcass. One of the pair flew off before I could get this photo...

Well the eagles made it an authentic 3-Day Thanksgiving Feast on that seal. They pretty much finished it off early today, followed up by a gull and a couple of crows trying for some last scraps...

There was a dead fox on the side of the Cross-Island Parkway near the Northern State yesterday.
Sorry, no way in Hades I was getting pictures in that traffic.
Crazy number of dead deer and coyotes on 84 in PA too.
