Brown Bullhead

Ameiurus nebulosus

Description:

about a foot long

Habitat:

freshwater

Notes:

I spotted these in the pond at Glenridge Quarry Naturalization site. The pond might have been stocked to promote the regeneration of the old limestone quarry. There were a lot of these catfish and they often came to the surface.

Thanks Mitch! There seems to be some variation within the species but it does look like it. Glad to have you back.
