New Jersey USFWS

Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge

9/6/2009 South of Morristown went to the Great Swamp NWR. Stopped for a potty break at the visitors center (not open - either too early or not on Sunday), then over to the observation center. Gorgeous day - cool, dry and sunny. Took the paths and (mostly) boardwalks over the swampy but very pretty area to two blinds. Unfortunately we really didn't see any wildlife, but it was very enjoyable anyway.
