After some more eating and drinking, I joined MacKenzie Hall of the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife, on a Bat Walk. And while we did see bats (and a fox) I did not take any pictures of either.
Patty went on the Full Moon Night Hike, where she saw scenes like this:
After the conclusion of the official Bat Walk a group of us continued on to try and find Pine Barrens Tree Frogs. We were somewhat successful in that we heard quite a few. But we did not see any.
We did see ...
Southern Leopard Frogs.
A Wolf Spider loaded with baby spiders. As MacKenzie said, "The stuff nightmares are made of."
A Northern Redbelly Snake. That's a full grown snake on pine needles. Tiny.
And Pink Lady's Slipper orchids.
We ended the night with, what else, food and drink. And a bit of mothing.
Where we saw, among others, this Cecropia Moth.
We left a little before midnight. It was a very nice day of bioblitzing.
