Incoming Storm and Broadleaf Arrowhead

Incoming Storm and Broadleaf Arrowhead
Paulinskill River WMA
Sussex County NJ
September 2023

A low camera angle on the Paulinskill highlights the flowers of a Broadleaf Arrowhead.

I was previously unaware that these plants’ roots can yield a highly edible tuber often referred to as “duck potato” or “Indian potato”.

Rattlesnake Marsh in Winter – Tourne County Park NJ

Rattlesnake Marsh in Winter

Tourne County Park
Morris County, New Jersey

We had a scenic but shallow blanket of fresh powder this morning.

FYI – This area is titled as “Rattlesnake Meadow” on the Tourne hiking map. A title that likely precedes damming and flooding by local beavers.

I liked how the morning sun swept through a sliver across the forest providing some shadows and highlights in the understory.
