Wildlife....
You may see black bears, white tail deer, foxes, raccoons, otters, squirrels, alligators, birds and snakes. Note.. some poisonous snakes do live in the area so watch your step.
If you do see a snake, Leave It Alone. There is no need to kill it.
During the warmer months you will encounter the dreaded "Down East Humming Bird" or as most people known them - mosquitoes. The salt water mosquitoes in the area tend to be very aggressive. Along with the skeeters you will also find (or rather they will find you) Deer Flies, they do not sting but they will bite.
I have found ticks all year so be sure and check yourself after a hike for unwanted hitchhikers. Chiggers are very active along the trail during the summer time.
So far I have encouter Deer, Turkeys, squirrels, woodpeckers, fox and all of the above mentioned insects. I have see 3 different species of snakes but have yet to find any poisonous snakes on the trail.
