http://www.wvdnr.gov/hunting/CoyoteResearch.shtm There is an area in the woods were I found a number of mutilated fawns and what I believe to be coyote dens and tracks. I want to investigate further. A recent trip there showed little evidence. Perhaps the pack has moved on.

Is it just me or has anybody noticed an abundance of opossums lately? Jeff

It has been a while since I have seen the piebald heard I know of near my house. I figured they were wiped out or something since I used to see them all the time and then nothing. Well, today I briefly took the motorcycle out and sure enough there they were again:) I got real close to this...

Well, it is official. Jack Alexander Larson was born October 5th at 12:46 pm! 10 days early and 13 1/2 hours of labor but he is healthy. Weighed 5lbs, 15 onces. He has lots of dark hair and deep blue eyes (eye color for now). I just got back from the hospital to clean up all, then I will...

I think of Island Beach State Park as part of the pine barrens. I don't know if it is officially or not. Anyway, I kayaked the sedge islands on Saturday. A little cloudy but from time to time the sky would open up. The amount of herons and egrets and cormorants was amazing. I had a...

http://www.satansplaygroundthemovie.com/satansplayground.php Did I link that right? Looks, well interesting. I read in the review that the house in the film really exits in the barrens. From the looks of it, I'm thinking one of the worker houses at basto (on the west side of the lake) or...

I'm going to do this in two posts because it keeps deleting before I finish. Monday was so beautiful. I have been curious about areas south of the A/C Expressway. I have been down there, but not much. I wanted to get a bit more into the thick of it so I took the motorcycle down. I started...

I have a full size bronco with mud tires and I rarely get stuck. Actually I never got stuck in this truck till this past monday. I went out early to do some kayaking/fishing. The water levels were too low and the bugs were bad so I turned for home. I decided to take a detour down a usually...

ORVs as recreation. A pinebarrens tradition? Yes or no?

I guess this could be a somewhat forgotten place as I haven't heard it mentioned here before. My wife and I were driving last weekend and we discovered this place. I saw it on goggle earth and was curious. I didn't know it was going to be a WMA so I was pleasantly surprised. Swan Bay WMA is...

Some songs from my album will played this evening, Wednesday 7-12-06 at 7:30 pm on the Down Jersey Radio Show if anyone cares to tune in. WSNJ 1240 AM or 1440 AM, or via the internet at www.WSNJAM.com. Jeff

So one of my students turned me on to this you tube thing. I found this when when I put in pine barrens on the search. It just totally cracked me up. I guess I'm a sicko. Somebody Loves Me In New Jersey Jeff

Claire and I did some canoeing today. We went from Oswego lake to upsteam a bit on the oswego river. The river was very clear and very few flies, much to my surprise. Perfect weather. Saw lots of red belly turtles, and a swimming nothern water snake. Some old pillions of a bridge...

Friday morning I headed out to Seaside park before work to play some guitar on the board walk before the crowds came in. I was on a bench when I thought I saw a very large dolphin loop out of the water. I was confused because I knew something wasn't right. Then an approx. 50 foot whale...

I found this out in the woods. Does anybody know what it is or might have been part of? Jeff

Box turtle today. The most dirtly shell I have ever seen on a Box turtle. Sorry about the photo quality. It was getting dark and I need the flash.

I couldn't sleep so I got up early and went kayaking on Mt. Misery Brook behind my house. Day break, stem rising off the brook Another view of the brook An old fridge maybe? One hell of a lift over

Deer Attack Three at Ill. University

Please note that this post is in reference to a inncident involving cannabalism within the native fish population of the pine barrens. It is graphic and gross and maybe offensive, but entirely true and a part of nature. If this bothers you don't read any further. You have been warned. A...
