Noticed this on my Fox Triad rear shock while out riding the other day

Is this anything to worry about? Seems quite an excessive amount of oil compared to what I've noticed before.

I'll be honest, its over 2 years old and never been serviced, but I dont ride that often so never felt like its had a hard life

    First time I've been there in such dry conditions. Felt like a totally different trail
