    warm weather

    Probably a black racer, they are normally the first ones out if the weather warms up. Seeing one in January is def. a odd site, but it was 75 degrees so they don't know any better.

    80's music

    Led Zeppelin basically got me through my freshmen year at Rutgers New Brunswick..much to the dismay of north jersey kids who I don't think knew who zeppelin was. Gallows pole, over the hills and far away, and battle of evermore are awesome songs. From the late 80's I forgot Guns and Roses...

    A few thoughts on the weather

    I agree there probably is a general warming of the earth. But this year is simply an anonamly which I'm not sure if there is an explanation for, whether it is global warming i'm not sure. However, while these temperatures are warm they are not setting record highs for this time of year. There...

    South Jersey: What are its boundaries?

    I agree south of long beach island, maybe a little bit more north but not much. I consider a town to be from south jersey if the ratio of eagles fans to giants fans is 3 to 1 or greater, if not it is north jeresey

    Bald Eagles in Brendan T. Byrne

    I'm sure you will see them out there again. Once spring comes they will be a little harder to find. Especially up there since I don't know if there are any nesting pairs in the pines. Bobpbx, you prob. saw an eagle, osprey shouldn't be around here at this time of year. I have a spot where i...

    Bald Eagles in Brendan T. Byrne

    As Bob said I too have seen more bald eagles then ever in areas away from their usual locations in cumberland and cape may counties. I have seen several flying overhead at whitesbog, and saw one at brendan down by pakim pond. You are very lucky to get such good pictures of them perched. I...

    You know you're from South Jersey if...

    I def always say I'm from south jersey, to me there two separate states. I'm not sure why north jerseyians insist on correcting what south jersey people say, even if their not english majors. I know my freshman year at rutgers people would ask me to say "home depot" and then laugh like idiots...

    The Salem Road and Other Places

    Having not known were salem road was I could tell it was in the cherry hill area just from the pictures of the forest, which have a unique look compared to other forest in south jersey. I wish there was some less disturbed areas in haddonfield, cherry hill, because the forest that do exists...

    80's music

    Having grown up in the 80's for a little bit of my life I hated the music then. Now that I'm a little older I have developed a appreciation for the music from the 80's. Girls love 80's songs at the bar like jeff stated, especially "pour some sugar on me". I'm a big journey fan and some of the...

    Decline in crows?

    I since did a little research on crows in new jersey and found out there numbers are dropping drastically at bird counts in the state. The reason is possibly west nile virus for which crows act as canaries do in coal mines. I'm sure areas where farms still exist they are still there(atlantic...

    Decline in crows?

    I was watching a show on njn last night on ravens in scotland, which was really interesting actually. It made me think how I almost never see crows anymore in camden county. When I was in high school I would see dozens everday in my front and back yard hopping around looking for food, and I...

    Big Guns

    I'm sure coyotes are the main reason for a 20 percent decline. With no natural enemy in south jersey besides man I would think coyote populations would be exploding. With the addition of a good amount of deer there will def be plenty of food. Is the deer population really diminishing like...

    Five Holes Yield 28 Rattlers for Jersey Snake Trapper

    Interesting article, when I first read it I failed to look at the date or the pittman name and became really frustrated. Then I realized in was from 1927. Don't worry I didn't think you are a snake hunter, just reacting to pittman's skill of wiping out a snake population.

    Five Holes Yield 28 Rattlers for Jersey Snake Trapper

    Yes and that explains why timbers are nearly extinct in the pines. Hard to believe people back then had an interest in keeping timbers.

    A few thoughts on the weather

    I def believe the whole global warming thing after seeing that al gore thing on mtv. I have to say I remember far more snow when I was a little kid(80's) and remember it being much colder, and my parents say the same thing when they were kids. However before last winter the previous 3-4...

    Big Guns

    That makes me incredibly angry. Why would they just leave one and skin the the other. I heard from somewhere that there are only about 300 coyotes in south jersey. Damn I'm pissed off now, wish I didn't see that.

    Whats up with the opossums?

    I have def seen an unusual amount of dead ones on rt. 55 down to cumberland county. Not sure why this would be, but I have noticed that both raccoons and possums are much more active during rainy nights. I have my spy cam in my backyard and both animals are regularly captured during heavy...
