I revsited the spot this thread is about today.This time i found the trail that was showing on my gps NJGIN aerials,a trail that does not show on black and whites or google earth.perhaps it's too new but it didn't look it,I just think these aerials are the bomb.so far all the maps I have used...

and the turtle appears to be a painted:-)

my unclke lived on the northwest corner of brewster and weymouth back in i known 73,he lived there a few years.i was 9 in 73.the house is still there,it was red then i believe it is beige now. aL

39.79276° N 74.42414° W this is where I parked Bob.I had already done quite a bit of bushwacking and that was my faurthest point and I was wore out and half boiled.I was looking for a stand sticking up above the trees but Jeffs idea sounds plausible.I have found holes with seats in them...

http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=qmzc418sx6q3&scene=38103662&lvl=2&sty=b does anyone know what the square structure in this photo is? I was on the trail just north of it (spin the screen south if it comes up north)today and did not see it from the trail.the small trail leading to the clearing...

I have always wondered in spring hill was named for the presence of springs.I have found one that dries up in summer but bubbles out of the ground most of the year as a seep.It is the very head of Breeches branch I suspect a possible nother on on a feeder of Papoose branch but have only been...

Guy will know:-)

some of those herps are quite rare finds.The coastal is ashame.that is the only way i have ever found one,DOR down in virginia,never found one in jersey.The corn and the tiger salamander are also rarities.Your very good with that camera and obviously know jersey herps pretty well. Al

look like pine snake eggs to me Oji

its a ribbon snake head on a garter snake body,at least the belly anyway,never could see the back.

this is a wild guess but I saw a bug that looked similar to that and it was called an Assassin bug.I'n not real insect savvy yet so don't trust me. Al

I'd say garter.if i had a good look at it's back I could be sure. Al

Bob,you have to double click on the map of nj and zoom in and make sure the little box up top is checked toi show imagery or all you will see is the map. Al

lakewsgirl, by the way you can make a great unsweetend lemonade out of those sumac berries once they ripen up.crush the berries in cold water and let sit for an hour or so,then strain through a rag or paper towel to get rid of the hairs and you have pink unsweetened lemonade,add sugar if you...

I seen a cougar while canoeing the Mullica back in 78.about a mile below the r.r.trestle. Al

I have spent the last six months off an on working on making maps from the aerial imagery on this sit https://njgin.state.nj.us/NJ_NJGINExplorer/IW.jsp?DLayer=NJ%202007%20Orthophotography# I had to download all the tiles and then use Globalmapper to make BMP files out of them,each file of each...

i still say the best remedy is a bath in epsom salt as hot as you can stand it.scratch the hell out of em.dries right up.maybe do it twice in real bad cases.swim in the ocean will do the same thing for chiggers or poison ivy.tannic acid should work as well. Al

the new one is the one i scanned and mailed him.seems you found it online:-) Al

I never would have believed that Turtle if you hadn't photographed it.An insect taking down a bird,imagine that,it's supposed to be the other way around. I had always knew that mantis could cut you with their claws but had never had one bite me.My wife swore they could bite and I laughed at her...
