Nov 20 Green Swamp


North Carolina's Green Swamp is a vast area of long leaf pine savannas, cypress swamps and pocosins. Also a Nature Conservancy owned tract. 


It appears to be a good area for deer hunting. The pine savannas offer long unobstructed views. Most of the hunting I saw along the roads was being aided by dogs. The dogs are released and run deer back to the shooting gallery.


These appear to be hooded pitcher plants. There were a number of groups but most look like the dry summer did them in.

Yellow Patches make an interesting mushroom.
