BELOW ARE SOME OF THE NOTABLE "RESIDENTS" OF TAUNTON BAY.:

The Bobcat is rarely seen but it occasionally emerges during hard winters to hunt for food around homes and outbuildings, then melt into the woods aga in.


White-tailed deer are an ever-present part of the Taunton Bay ecosystem. They are frequently seen walking single file across the ice in the winter months, following the dream of greener cedar leaves and lichen on the other side.


The Great Blue Heron is still a common sight around Taunton Bay though its numbers have dwindled in recent years.
