The Skylands Birding and Wildlife Trails project was coordinated by New Jersey Audubon Society (NJAS) staff: Lillian B. Armstrong, Director of Birding and Wildlife Trails, Linda Gangi, Project Manager, Jeannine Parvin, Project Assistant, with the guidance of Dale Rosselet, Vice President of Education, and Eric Stiles, Vice President of Conservation and Stewardship.
NJAS is extremely grateful to the New Jersey Department of Transportation for funding this meaningful and exciting community-based program. The team would especially like to thank the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Division of Fish and Wildlife, and the New Jersey Division of Travel and Tourism for their contributions to the project.
Many other people made contributions including a host of local field naturalists, without whose collective knowledge of the area this guide would not have been possible; the talented team at Art270 who created and implemented the brochures’ striking design, the professional staff at Innovation Printing, Inc., where the brochures were printed, the New Jersey Department of Transportation’s Division of Information Technology whose talented team created all the maps for the brochures and website and, of course, all those dedicated people who oversee these wonderful wildlife areas and were kind enough to share their expertise with us.
For this website, we are grateful for the efforts of NJAS’s long-time friends, Mike Lyncheski and Robert Riviera of The Harrier Group, and Jim O’Malley, Information Systems Manager at NJAS.
Finally, we wish to thank all the fine birders, naturalists, scientists, historians, and conservationists who came before us and worked to protect New Jersey’s abundant natural resources, especially the staff, Board of Directors, and volunteers of New Jersey Audubon Society. Their dedication and enthusiasm inspires us, and millions of others, to protect and enjoy wildlife whenever and wherever we can.
