Daniel P. B. Smith Just to be clear: there will be hunters with shotguns in the Blue Hills on those four days?
Joe Greeley Thank you for the update, and for sharing this level of detail.
Vanessa Aller John Manganaro look at the information on the shotguns allowed. Interesting. I thought it was archery only.
Robert Machado There has also been an Archery hunt going in the reservation the past 3 weeks or so. Mondays through Thursdays between November 5th and November 21st.
Felix Parker Thanks for the updated information! And thank you to the Friends of the Blue Hills for supporting these deer management efforts. As I understand it, the Friends were at the forefront several years ago in trying to get the state’s attention on the negative impacts of the overpopulation of deer in the Blue Hills. I’m glad those efforts resulted in action. The Blue Hills forest only stands to benefit from continued management of the deer population. Look at other places like the Quabbin where they have successfully brought back their forest using a controlled hunt. There should have been hunting in the Blue Hills 20 years ago to keep the population in check.

Deborah Mason Well I LOVE this photo! I love that trees give us shade, food, support and color!
Jim LaFond-Lewis Trees are true to themselves and to us in every season.
Mary Hiker They are perfect. In summer they have a full canopy to shade us from the summer's heat. In the cold winter months they're bare allowing the winter sun in to warm us.

Brian Park Trees never complain.

If you’re like me, you appreciate how lucky we are that the Blue Hills is there for all of us…
I bring my four kids to the Blue Hills almost every week… I want to make sure the park will be there for my children to enjoy.
But what if it weren’t there for the next generation? If we let the brush grow over the trails, the invasive species out compete native species, and we give in to the proposals to pave park habitat… our park will not be there in the years to come.
I hope you will join me in donating to the 2018 Blue Hills Fund, so that the next generation can enjoy the same beautiful nature that we experience today.
You support today will go toward our goal of raising $15,000 this fall. Your gift will go directly back to caring for the park.
