    Pine Barren Tree Frog Hunt

    I was going to say Green treefrog because I have camped down south and heard them and they are similar but I was not aware they occurred this far north.Had never heard of Salem county green treefrogs.They look like PB,s without the extra colors thrown in.

    Pine Barren Tree Frog Hunt

    I have found them in trees a few times,never more then seven feet off the ground though.Most of the time they are in the water or inches above it.They are great at shutting up for long periods as you get close to your chosen target.Then another group will provoke you into abandoning that area...

    Pine Barren Tree Frog Hunt

    Gibby They will call in broad daylight if it's warm and humid and they haven't mated yet.If you go back at night there will be more no doubt.They call in small chorus's and alternate from one group to the other.I forget the term for that but it allows each location a turn instead of mass...

    Hiking Greenwood Forest WMA?

    I went back to the reservation once and shot the breeze with the caretakers once.I went to TBJ's first class and know the lingo so after being suspicious at first they warmed up to me.TBJ puts out some good survival info but I can't get into the shamanism stuff.I have come over the years to...

    Hiking Greenwood Forest WMA?

    another way in the barrens is paying attention to mass tree falls.Do not pay attention to single downed trees since they may have just fell over in any direction but if you see many trees in an area and they are all pointing one direction chances are they are pointing east or southeast.Most of...

    http://www.naturalnavigator.com/find-your-way-using/plants This is very true in the Barrens.You can use trees in the middle of the woods,pine and oak work best.The heaviest and most horizontal branches tend to be on the south SE sides and the more vertical limbs reaching for the sun are on the...

    if you watched the video on the link above I coulda swore he was Australian but he said the sun is to the south at noon.If he was an Aussie it should be north at noon or straight overhead in northern Australia.He must be a Brit.Country looked more like Britain anyway.
