Founded in October of 2020 because of a very friendly bee (see article here), the Wild New Jersey Nature Column has featured several articles covering topics like birds of color, large moths, misunderstood (?) sharks, the Jersey Devil, and so much more. Now Upgraded to The Talon News website, all future articles have a fresh new look! Links to my old articles on the old website are below for your convenience, enjoy!

NEW: This year the column will have even more features similar to the articles in the past, but now will also feature interviews with people that have had strange wildlife encounters for you to enjoy!
