    Cumberland County Arrowheads

    Actually true flint is supposedly on ly found in America in the Alibates flint quarries of texas which I be;lieve is a national monument.Most flint referred to by arrowhead hunters is actually chert or jasper,sometimes even obsidian which will make a sharper edge then any steel will.

    Pine Pollen

    I also have the yellow pollen.I am just assuming pine because no more oak catkins are falling and the ones on the ground are now mud.I"d say 80% of the trees here are either Red Oak or White Oak and the rest are pine with understory sassafras and dogwood so I"m just assuming pine.My pines are...

    Ticks & Chiggers--a study

    Now I have seen bears stand on two legs,lean back against a tree and do an up and down dance scratching their backs and butts. But i fear it's deer and not bears spreading ticks around South Jersey.
