Some vernal pools exist on various roads. Many of these pools are breeding pools and contain various eggs - tadpoles etc. Some should possibly not be driven through between march and September. The state will close most of the Pines one day to our travels. It is the way things go. We have...

It would be good to all work together. I do all I can as many others with no support from government. I thought state should at least cart away what we pick up. I will work on that and see what I come up with. So far today I may at least have a commitment to have a truck so up to pick up what...

Road closures can occur with the states help. There is a vernal pool group from NJ Wildlife. DEP can close some roads too if we show it is needed. Some roads need drainage too. I know DEP- WMA does what they need to help hunters access roads. I was thinking about doing this perhaps on the...

We all have volunteered somewhere thats great. The state, county and local officials and those that dump must be held accountable ! There is a limit to not holding those responsible and I have reached mine a long time ago. I have made it clear to those I see in the East Plains about...

Any interest to meet and plan a formal campaign to take care of a section of the pines? Pine Barrens Caretakers Each person will take a section that they favor. We will document the area in photos that require cleaning, road maintenance, perhaps seasonal road closures, (i.e. vernal ponds...

I am not sure any are in the pines is really dark enough. Too much light from surrounding areas. I know from the east plains Atlantic City, glows to the south west, Stafford and Barnegate and Toms River & South East, East and north. Then in the distant west is Medford and Philly. I...

Pinion from this link http://www.thehammontonnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090225/OPINION/902250330/1014/OPINION Preserving open space is important. That is why we have supported every bond referendum dedicated to the purchase of land for this purpose. Worthy goals often cost money...

On a closer look in birds eye it seems to be an area that was burned. Could be needles which turned brown from a burn and then fell to ground.

I don;t think it is natural. Interesting how it is maintained within the range boundaries. Could be from an infrared photo which was blended into a color image.

Great replies. I'll have to try the scooping method.

Anyone collect and enjoy eating lowbush blueberries, raw, muffins, in bread etc? We collected a small amount last year and enjoyed them. I hope to gather a few gallons this year.
