The Piermont Pier  a wildlife refuge?
- April
- 10
This year, it seems, the Piermont Pier has become a veritable wildlife refuge. Or, at least, a vacation destination for visiting wildlife.
The latest critter spotted at the Pier has been a harbor seal.
Back in January, it was the snowy owl, an unusual visitor to our relatively southern climes (compared to its usual stomping grounds of the Arctic).
Then in February, there was the ivory gull, said to be a first for Rockland (a snowy owl already had made its way to Rockland about 15 years ago, according to the Rockland Audubon Society.
I guess word is getting around to the critters of the north that the Piermont Pier is the place to be.
If you happen to spot the seal and get a photo, let us know. And if you spot another interesting critter out there, let us know that, too.
