Animals from the NJ Pine Barrens

elgecko

I've got a magic window!
Here is a strange group of animals I found in the Pine Barrens:
Bob, Joe, Mark (Tong), and Suzanne.
It was very nice meeting up with all of you, and hope to do it again.

Beautiful photos! Thanks for sharing your finds with us.

The frogs look to be green frogs(R. clamitans) and a Northern Leopard frogs(R. pipiens).
 
What? No pics of the 'swamp horse'?? Those critters up top look very menacing! *shudder*

Wow...they came out really nice Steve! But that first pic...that's a pretty dangerous looking group of wild humans. I hope you had your human tongs with you in case they needed to be controlled.

WOW, how did you get the frogs in the first pic to stand up amd pose like that. That's an amazing pic.

No bad tempered swamp horse pic.

The one in the shorts had quick, shifty eyes. I had my Mace ready at all times.

Thanks.
It was a very cooperative frog. There was lots of grass in front of his face and I was inches away from it pulling out the grass to get a clear shot.
 
Steve...what kind of weeds were you studying out there in the bog?

Ozzy meant the frogs standing up in your FIRST photo. lol

Hey,
They're not all frogs in that first pic - one is a toad. Up to you to guess which one!

Why would you call a horses but a smiling face?

Did you get a picture of the rider?

I only have one question. Did any of you see a bear?
 
  • #19
I think she would have been happy if we all were eaten by a bear.  Still, she seemed satisfied to point us in the opposite direction of where she was going.

P.S. My daughter found two highlights to my film: the horse and Steve.
