We finally got over to James J. Braddock North Hudson County Park in North Bergen on Tuesday to look for the Mandarin Duck and to check out this wonderful 167-acre park.
The park features Woodcliff Lake (above) — the largest lake in Hudson County in its middle.
We did not see the Mandarin but got nice looks at Northern Shovelers and female Hooded Mergansers.
The park was named after boxer James J. Braddock, subject of the Russell Crowe biopic "Cinderella Man." Click here to learn more about Braddock and see his prizefights against Max Baer and Joe Louis.
