Tall Pines Flower Walk

October 20, 2018 @ 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

Autumn is perhaps the loveliest time of the year at Tall Pines State Preserve. Join Michael Hogan and the South Jersey Land and Water Trust (SJLWT) for a leisurely late afternoon walk through the meadows of Tall Pines. This is a special time at Tall Pines. Not only are the trees and shrubs displaying their bright autumn colors, but the meadows are alive with fall wildflowers- goldenrods (there are over 40 species native to the Northeast), bonesets, great clumps of small white aster, camphorweed and many more. This abundance of blooms draw a great variety of butterflies- the migrating monarch, common buckeye, painted lady, red admiral and many species of skippers. Tall Pines is a great place for birding too. Over 140 species have been noted here so we’ll be on the lookout for fall migrants. Bring binoculars and a camera, and join us for an afternoon of nature and good company at Tall Pines.

Please RSVP.  Contact Michael Hogan at [email protected] or 609-476-2086 if you have any questions.
