This buck stops to stretch and rub his face into this spruce bough. They do this as a means to leave their scent , secretions from eye and facial glands, on the bough and leave their mark. They will also nibble on the branch tips and their scent gets left that way as well. This "scrape" is part of their behaviour to mark territory and attract does.

I had a couple of hours before catching a plane in Newark and ended up in the Liberty State Park, a fantastic spot to get great shots of Lower Manhattan skyline.

Black-fronted Dotterel
Scientific Name: Elseyornis melanops
Description: The Black-fronted Dotterel is a small wader with a distinctive black face-mask and breast-band and prominent chestnut scapulars (shoulder feathers). In juveniles, the breast-band is initially absent but a brown band slowly appears as the bird develops. Legs are pink orange, and the bill is red with a black tip. The dark eye is ringed with red. In flight the wings look broad and the tail short, while the black and white contrast is striking. Flight is slow with almost hesitant wing beats. This species is also called the Black-fronted Plover.
Similar species: The adult and immature Black-fronted Dotterel are unmistakable, though the juvenile could be confused with the juvenile and immature Red-capped Plover.
Distribution: The Black-fronted Dotterel is widespread throughout Australasia.
Habitat: The Black-fronted Dotterel is found in the shallow margins of wetlands, lakes, rivers, sewage farms, storm drains and marshes. It is normally always near freshwater and is not often seen on the coast.
Seasonal movements: Breeding resident.
Feeding: The Black-fronted Dotterel eats small molluscs as well as aquatic and terrestrial insects. When it forages, it keeps its body horizontal while bobbing its head to look for food, often running then stopping suddenly to peck at food items.
Breeding: The Black-fronted Dotterel lays its eggs in a shallow scrape, often on pebbly ground and quite close to water. It may have more then one brood per year. Both parents incubate the eggs and look after the young.
Calls: Sharp 'tip' call, singular or repeated three or four times.
Minimum Size: 16cm
Maximum Size: 18cm
Average size: 17cm
Average weight: 32g
Breeding season: September to February
Clutch Size: 2 to 3 eggs
Incubation: 27 days
Nestling Period: 25 days

"Not much real estate to stand there--so get there early". Wise advise, Will.
Though it was technically past sunrise, thick clouds and still being the 0700 hour made grabbing the Santa Train at Pool Point a high ISO, low shutter affair. Still, the masses came before the train showed up to grab the iconic train crossing an equally iconic bridge in what little light was available. This was the Clinchfield I wanted to see.
