We got to escape for a quick camping trip over the weekend at Lake Ocquittunk, in Stokes State Forest. Turns out my mom learned to swim in this lake a few decades ago! We spent a couple hours doing some fun forest activities at the New Jersey School of Conservation, too. People really underestimate the beauty and nature of NW New Jersey!
My Saturday morning coffee table. A little work reading and some escapism, all of a theme. #adk #naturelover #cabinlife #someday
I was just thinking to myself that it was red eft season and it’s surprising I haven’t bumped into any on the trails yet, and there they were! Love these bright orange juvenile newts. I seem to making a habit of positive visualization lately. What herp should I try to manifest next?!
I thought about posting for World Turtle Day yesterday, but I haven’t gotten any nice turtle pics in ages and I decided against searching through thousands of old photos for the right one. Then this morning I happened upon this beautiful eastern box turtle. It’s a species of Special Concern in NY and I’ve only encountered one in Westchester once, some years ago. What a treat! #turtle #worldturtleday #herping
