Foxes are barking from dusk to dawn across Pennsylvania as they seek out partners for the mating season, which runs through early February.
Bald eagles at more than 300 active nests across the state are making renovations to those nests in preparation for laying eggs in mid- to late February.
Although raccoons spend particularly inclement periods of winter in relative inactivity, they also breed in January through February and then give birth to litters of 3-5 cubs about 2 months later. The mother raccoon starts to wean the cubs at about 8 weeks. By 3-4 months they are matured to the point that they can be on their own, but they usually remain with their mother through thei

Mitchell v the skipper When reflecting on his maiden test century and the opportunity to bat in partnership with Kane Williamson, Daryl Mitchell mentioned that he played against him when he was 14.
That match probably warrants more attention. It was Bay of Plenty Coastlands U14s v Hamilton U14s. Doug Bracewell and Williamson opened the batting for the Bay.

They scored 271.

The funds could have fed a few families at Christmas.
