This third and last post on the Pine Barrens shows what a lot of the area looks like inland and a few of the plants.
Pine Barrens Flora
New Jersey
Pine Barrens Fauna
In addition to butterflies we saw other insects and amphibians. I was pleased to be able to identify the Red Velvet and Ant which is actually in the wasp family.
Pine Barrens Lepidoptera
On Sunday, April 24, we covered a lot of southern New Jersey, from Atlantic to Cape May Counties, with Rick Ceck (author of Butterflies of the East Coast) and some members of the Linnaean Society of NY. I tried my best to identify these. Any corrections are welcome.
Two more posts to follow about the Pine Barrens trip.
Greenbrook in Ice
The ice covered trees sparkled like diamonds in the sun at Greenbrook Nature Sanctuary on February 5, 2022. Walking was difficult because of all the ice so we didn’t walk far or stay long. The leaves and branches everywhere were encased in ice.
Hudson and Jersey City
While on the photoshoot of the moon I photographed some other things while we were at Paulus Hook in New Jersey.

Greenbrook
Greenbrook Nature Sanctuary small private place on the Palisades in New Jersey that we can get access to with a key because we are members. I added a circle created using polar coordinates in Photoshop to the picture of the falls.
