Anyone have an encounter with a Fisher Cat?

I didn't see it, my wife did, it was in the yard.

We live in a pretty rural area and get all kinds of wildlife, deer, rabbit, raccoon, possum, porcupine, fox, ground hog, bear (caught him on an outdoor cam destroying the bird feeder), lots of turkey, sometimes we see a bald eagle and most nights we hear coyote close by as well as the usual assortment of reptiles and amphibians. green leopard frogs, rock frogs, toads, red-eared slider and snapping turtles, grass snake and those ones that look like rattlesnakes but aren't (milksnakes? over the years have had three of them in the house!).

She saw the fisher cat in the daytime, didn't know what it was.

So I called up Mammals of New York and started clicking through them. When it came to Fisher Cat she reacted right away, "That's it! That's what I saw and it was just like that pic, looking right at me!"

I had never even heard of them until that moment.

Anyway, I had to stop throwing table scraps out in the weeds (I had been actively trying to encourage coyotes to come and keep the rabbit population in check).
