This is a massive panorama of a small section of the forest... somewhere along the Terblans Nature Walk.
The one with the actual Faerie...none of that Photoshop Trickery..Lol !! ( well !...suggestively hand painted in Lightroom )
Can anyone identify this tree? Cheesequake's hardwood forest is known for containing Oak, Maple, Birch, and Gum trees. I'd love to know what species this is, but clearly no leaves to go by in winter.
"Cheesequake State Park is a 1,610-acre (2.52 mi2) state park located in Old Bridge, Middlesex County, New Jersey, in the United States.
The New Jersey Legislature allocated $100,000 in 1937 to purchase property for the park. The state first acquired a 250-acre (100 ha) tract of farmland and a Civil War-era mansion from the Favier brothers in January 1938. Additional lands were acquired over the next two years, and the Civil Conservation Corps, part of the Works Progress Administration, helped develop the property. The park was opened in June 1940. It is operated and maintained by the New Jersey Division of Parks and Forestry and is part of the New Jersey Coastal Heritage Trail Route.
The name Cheesequake has been variously described as deriving from the Lenape words Cheseh-oh-ke ("upland"), Chichequaas ("upland village"), or Chiskhakink ("at the land that has been cleared").
The park's lowlands consist of freshwater and saltwater marsh and a tidal estuary near the mouth of Cheesequake Creek on the Raritan Bay. It also includes hills of Northeastern hardwood forest, open fields, and a white cedar swamp. It includes a small parcel of Atlantic coastal pine barrens, consisting of pine forest in sandy soil, an isolated section of the much larger New Jersey Pine Barrens. It also includes the 6-acre (24,000 m2) Hooks Creek Lake, a freshwater lake where recreational fishing features trout, largemouth bass, catfish, and sunfish. Crabbing is also available at the park.
The park includes an interpretive center and five marked trails for both hiking and mountain biking that run throughout the wooded hills and across long wooden bridges across marshland. The park has designated camping areas available by reservation. Swimming and boating are summertime activities, while sledding, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing are available in wintertime.
The Garden State Parkway runs through the park near exit 120 but offers no direct access. A road runs underneath the parkway to connect the northern and southern sides of the park. Parts of the park, including a picnic area, are visible from the parkway. Aberdeen-Matawan station (New Jersey Transit) is located about two miles east of the park." (Wikipedia)

We the Fairies, blithe and antic,
Of dimensions not gigantic,
Though the moonshine mostly keep us,
Oft in orchards frisk and peep us.

Meander of the Adams River
Roderick Haig-Brown Provincial Park
Roderick Haig-Brown was born in England in 1908 and first visited British Columbia as a teenager. B.C. put something of a spell on him and he returned there in 1934 to make his home on Vancouver Island. He was a noted author, avid fly fisherman, magistrate and, above all, a conservationist. He was also the Chancellor of my alma mater, the University of Victoria, in the years I attended there.
The park which was named in his honour is located along several kilometres of the Adams River which is known for having one of the largest sockeye salmon runs in North America. Every fourth year, when there is a dominant run, the river runs red with the millions of salmon returning to their own birth place to spawn. Next year will be a dominant run and I can't wait to photograph it.
Classy! It is not an easy thing to disguise a generic convention booth.

I think cheetah cub profiles must be what inspired some human to create faeries
update: the cubs have been named. This little one has a shaved spot on her left front side. That makes her Rhaxma which means 'sweet' in Somali.
Tired of being seen as sweet and innocent..the tooth faerie took matters into her own hands and now she is the biggest crime scene evidence of all! The teeth..they are all hers!!!
