Just want to announce the first BPN get together for the Mid-Atlantic region.
Date is Dec. 19th from 2pm till sunset at Barnegat Lighthouse SP jetty; http://www.state.nj.us/dep/parksandforests/parks/barnlig.html .
I will be there along with Denise Ippolito. Artie has told me he will be there if the schedule allows! Let us know if you can make it and send me a PM if you need any more info!
Should be fun!
Would love to be there. Only problem, there's a matter of a huge ocean to consider. Pity.
Great idea, I will be there if nothing unforeseen happens.
I would love to come but it is the saturday before Christmas. The other thing is 3:45 is low tide that afternoon which can hamper photography of the ducks.
Cool! I'll try to make it down there, too.
Long drive for me but me and my wife Kyle are considering it and we'll see how things get especially so close to X-Mas.
We will try to make it. Would love to meet all you BPNers.
Linda
I too would enjoy meeting everyone there. I will try my best to make it with Linda.

Thanks for posting this Roman, gonna see if I can make it.
I hope everyone can make it. It would be nice to meet everyone in person.
Stuart-you sure you can't swim!!:D
I hope to be there too...
We put it on our calendar. If everything falls into place (i.e. weather cooperates; holiday shopping done; etc), we'll be there. That 1535 low tide is a bummer but there is plenty of other things there to shoot if the ducks are too low in the water. Just remember to be careful out on that jetty.
Hey All,
While normally I would pay attention to the tides for the birds at Barnegat...given the multiple schedules we had to work around....you get the idea! Like Ed mentioned......still plenty there to photograph of the smaller birds!
I shall be there Roman. Please send out a reminder as things get closer.
Hi All,
Just be aware that the gates do get locked.....so park outside the lot near the wall or around the corner if you plan on staying towards sunset! Let's say we will meet aound 2pm......this will give us time to walk out onto the jetty! Do be aware that the rocks can be slippery and with the wind......very cold!
They lock the gates at 4 PM. The forecast for the 19th looks pretty good, partly cloudy, 40F, 10mph wind.
I really would like to make this one...but can't get the time off..I put in for my holidays last April...I work weekends
If there will be a Second Mid-Atlantic BPN GTG!..and I know well in advance, I can get my memo in on time. Hope all goes well
Hi All,
Weather is looking iffy (cloudy/chance of snow or rain....Yikes!!!) I am still heading down and we will be meeting around 1pm at the lighthouse......although Artie will be there all day possibly. Check the Mid Atlantic Region Forum for the latest updates!
Our weather forecast for Maryland calls for heavy snow beginning tonight, and accumulating to 10-12 inches through tomorrow. I'm afraid that Linda and I may have to pass on this GTG.
Based on this morning's snow forecast for tomorrow of anywhere from 6+" in the Philadelphia region to 10-20" in central Jersey, I will NOT be attending tomorrow's GTG....
Have a good one. I must get down sometime to see the Harlequins etc. Maybe combine a trip to B&H in NYC for the new mark IV!!!
Hey All,
OK....it official!!! We will not be having the BPN GTG this Saturday!!! The snow forecast is definitely makeing that not a good idea and we will reschedule soon!
