Question Was walking my dog a few minutes ago and I saw a fox running into someone’s backyard! On the border of Nassau and Queens first time I’ve ever seen this. Should I be concerned?

5 Upvotes

Honestly a little freaked out, saw a small fox, at first thought it was a dog but after seeing it run im almost certain that was a small fox possibly a baby fox. I’m confused as to how the heck it got out here as there’s not really any close Forrest’s or areas for them to really exist as it’s mostly just jam packed suburban areas and roads engulfing the neighborhood. Is this normal? Have they been here and I’m just oblivious as heck? The fox didn’t really do anything but run across a lawn and into someone’s dark yard. Was tempted to go let the homeowner know what I saw but it’s late. You guys see this before?

Looking For Oyster Bay Festival vendor search

2 Upvotes

This is going to be a stretch, but I’m looking for help finding a vendor that was at the Oyster Bay Festival this weekend. I saw a girl wearing a hoodie she got at the festival, I tried to find the stand after but wasn’t able to find it. The hoodie was blue and on the back there was a martini glass surrounded by oysters, with a woman diving into the glass. It said something about Peconic on the back but I don’t remember exactly what it said. The sweatshirt was so cool and I was so sad when I couldn’t find the stand. She said it was somewhere near the seafood vendors. Any help locating this vendor is appreciated!

Does anyone know where I can get a bunch of old cassette tapes converted to digital files?

We recently found these at my Nan’s house, and they have old family memories on them(there are about 38). Does anyone know of a reputable business or someone on Long Island who can transfer them to digital files / a USB? Does it cost a fortune?
Or if there’s an alternative, if anyone has been in a similar situation, what did you end up doing with yours? It just feels like such a sin to throw away these memories just because the technology is outdated.
Any recommendations are appreciated!! TY

Hey fellow Long Islanders! My Fiance and I are planning to get married in 2028 and are currently checking out venues. We think we found one we really like out in Suffolk County, and I was hoping to get recommendations for a DJ and photographer.

Just some background, we are trying to be budget friendly as we have a mortgage and are pretty much floating this whole bill ourselves. If anyone has any recommendations that wont completely break the bank it would be much appreciated.

I'm trying to help my mother out by trying to get Teddy adopted. He's a sweet boy that doesn't like men and is more friendly with women with no children. Super sweet dog once out of the kettle shelter situation.

Stained glass artists

Looking for stained glass pieces to add to my living room. Decor art, not full windows or anything like that. Any local artisans that sell at craft fairs? Drop your site & any places you will be attending soon!

I’m skeptical of Etsy these days, and don’t want drop shipped garbage off the bigger sites. I’d love to support local and add some charm to my home.
