This is the Bronx.. by wingsofdragons on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

I love living in the Bronx. I live not too far from Pelham Bay Park, and there are all sorts of wildlife in our borough: coyotes, owls, possums, deer, rabbits, raccoons, foxes, herons, skunks, wild turkeys, hawks and kestrels just to name a few
I know there were some news reports a few months ago of fisher (a species that used to be restricted to upstate) that was seen roaming around the streets near Bronx Community College. Looks like another sign of the river being less polluted and becoming more habitable for native species to return. The first being the return of the beavers several years ago after a 200 year absence.

Lovely photo! Can't wait to go kayaking down the river this spring!
