Plant survey sites

[ozzy]

I just wanted to start a thread that shows the work that NASC has done. I will post pics of sites that I have personally surveyed for NASC.

My biggest project is the Green Swamp in NC.

I have been working pretty hard to get an accurate map of what plants are on the TNC property of the Green Swamp. I have logged hundreds of plant locations and taken many pics. If you have a 56k connection, you may not want to see this. I even got to parts of the Swamp that is so remote that most people won't go.

When I took the pic, I didn't know. I could tell it was some kind of trap. I also volunteer for the TNC to watch their property, so I took the pics to send to them to see if they knew. It turned out that some scientist had placed it there and forgotten it. He was trying to catch a larvae that eats VFT's. Funny thing is that it was placed in an area that there are no VFT's. Go figure.

That is an awesome visual tour of this property. (Looks familiar!) It's a beautiful placed loaded with CPs and other wonderful bog plants. Thanks for showing the companion plants as well. Well worth the trip if anyone wishes to get a tour guided of this area. Look at those pings and flytraps!
