Turtle, the pines you found are in a nest. You should go back and observe each year and you will be find the female digging that nest and the young hatching out around now. Those babies should hang by that nest for a week or more. Nice finds

Guy was it a nest of field mice? Really cool video.

God you guys are making these volunteers out like they are the enemies. They wanted to protect a site from ORV use, let it rest for God's sake.

Just a few things I'll throw out here, I can't really figure out what people support sometimes on here. One day there is a thread bitching about 1/4 mile and how its a disaster and something needs to be done and the next day the same people are upset because access was closed off to a spot that...

Been driving down to LBI a lot this summer, always take caranza>563>679>stage>route 9, avoids most the crazy idiots on 72/539/parkway. So glad I know roads to get around the tourist highways, 539 is a disaster waiting to happen.

The reality is this was done because they don't have the manpower to patrol the areas. Cameras can't be used because they don't have money to buy them. The bottom line is they have no money to do anything, which is why volunteers are placing logs to block off trails. This will pass and we...

Closing off these roads forever changes the character of Wharton. I've said it before say it again I never see much abuse in Wharton from orv use. I see a lot of people driving responsibly. This had to be some part related to getting grants to fix roads, and the realizing only way to keep in...

I never really thought the orv use was that big a deal. This seems like a knee jerk reaction. It takes a lot of the freedom, lawlessness of the barrens away from it. I haven't been out to explore all season, but would love to see everything that was blocked off. One of my favorite things in...

You can tell a real old one if the rattle is totally square at end and doesn't go to a taper. That snake is old very squared off.

sure thats a nest? I can't tell from the video, could just be where all the pine needles get hung up. Nighthawk or whip seems more logical.

Def wouldn't be a killdeer, they do feign like crazy but the habitat in the pines isn't right. I see them by more open areas, have never seen one in the pines that i can recall. Habitat isn't right for a woodcock either.

Smoke smell is strong over here on atsion road near medford border. My backyard is looking pretty hazy.

I want this to work out but don't see it doing so. I think the amount of coyotes out there won't allow it.

Nothing wrong with venting Bob. A lot of what goes on in the barrens is exceptionally frustrating at times. I find the only way I get piece of mind is by going to the decision makers, in a private entity I probably wouldn't get answers, but in public I expect an answer. I get your...

Bob, I respect you as a pine barrens explorer but disagree completely with paving webbs, quite suprised you would suggest this. I think jd has valid points regarding asking questions. No solutions will be reached if people making decisions don't know people care or are disastified. I almost...

Site is loaded with threatened and endangered stuff. Wish Hogmanian would just go away.

How deep down do they cut these breaks, a foot into the ground?

As I said on a previous post it's awesome the Haines family is doing this. I have my doubts as well because of all the coyotes out there. If nothing else the forest thinning and management is a improvement.

From the start I haven't thought this pipeline issue was a big deal in anyway. The impact isn't that great. This isn't like they are going to start doing natural gas drilling in the pines, its just to run a very minor line so people down the shore can live normal lives. The result of the lack...

Water becomes less acidic according to the link I posted.
