I have a ton of photos of this guy; can upload more if anyone wants.

He walked along one of the pathways for a while, then stalked and caught a small animal (pictured)

Spent a while sniffing in grass until a smaller, mangy looking coyote showed up; he tried to mount her but she was not up for it. They then both sniffed around the grass.

Neither seemed to care much that people were walking by.

Start from the nearest Street, count southward toward the 17th stones on the third row. The plants was found in the gap. (Facing west)

The plant was covered by concrete later, but it might still be alive now.

This non-native Carex was abundant in this area - along trails and also invading adjacent successional woodlands. It is known to have naturalized in the northeastern North America. Here it is acting like an invasive but doesn't appear to be on any invasive species lists that I could find anywhere in North America, and it is sold as an ornamental.

This species is always a good find near NYC; it’s my first encounter with it in Central Westchester and in my many decades of observing leps in and around the Rockefeller State Park Preserve. A significant local colony, and flying today with Meadow Fritillary and Buckeyes.
