    Tree Identification Query

    Good post Scott, now I'm leaning towards oak after that. Road trip! Any good halfway houses down that way after the ID for food and a brew? :dance:

    Marsh Hawk

    I am not a birder, but its fun to try and figure this out because no one has taken a firm stand. I have Kaufmann's book. This does not look like a Marsh Hawk, also known as the Norther Harrier; Circus cyaneus. This is an Accipiter, and I think it is a juvenile Cooper's Hawk (Accipiter...

    Governers Hill

    1774! That makes it a very early one in the pines then. Even on the 1931 ariel you can tell that area was cleared of trees, all up and down that creek, which is now called Risley Branch on the topo's of Chatsworth area. Thanks. I would not have guessed that old.

    Governers Hill

    Jerseyman, In your post above, Bisbee mentions Jones Mill. Guy and I are keen to know how old that is. We can see it on the William Watson 1812 map. Do you have any information regarding its earliest history and who constructed it?

    Howard Boyd's Wife Has Passed

    That is sad. Doris came with Howard when I showed him that stand of Southern Pitcher plants. And she came along again when I took Howard on the other side of the Cooks Branch to show him a flower bog. She was very protective of Howard, who was really extending himself that day. He was very...

    New Jersey Big Tree Program

    Hmmmm is right. Jeff's is bigger, by 6.75 inches (by 4 inches the way Proff. Zimmerman measures). Jeff, did you check the hole Zimmerman made for the core sample?

    East Plains Clouds

    Very polished, very smooth. Very good Mike. The first one is only about 50 yards west of your property along your road, right?

    Mullica Township? Yes or No

    Say it loud and say it proud! You do have a young mind for being 60 Boyd. Yes, sometimes a little cranky intolerance does creep in, but we love you anyway. :clint:

    A Sawmill, or is it?

    I'd bet 10 Krugerrands that you found portions of buildings more than 150 years old Guy. They look as old as Hampton Furnace. PS: it was 5-6 years ago that I became disillusioned with the stock market and had a plan to buy one Krugerrand a month instead of pumping dollars into my IRA. I...

    strangeness in a cedar swamp

    I agree with all that you said Jeff, including the Jersey Devil sharpening his horns on that tree. I have been nearly there, but my target was different. Do you see that patch of savanna below the end of that sand road to the right of your Island? I was trying to reach that to see if any...

    Earthen Damn at Stafford Forge Burst

    By the way, I looked at the whirlpool video. Is is mesmerizing. If you let your eyes move around the video in a circle watching the lines leading into the whirlpool it's really wild.

    Earthen Damn at Stafford Forge Burst

    Yeah, I guess I never understood or bothered to look into that minus 74 thing. I guess we are backwards from Greenwich and they are forward?

    Mullica Township? Yes or No

    How close is the nearest hospital down there? Its lowland, more bugs. Food shopping? Can't be much. What is the tax rate? Not trying to be negative, just giving things for you to think about.
