While down the NJ shore this summer, stopped by the Cape May Zoo. There were a ton of these around. What say you?

Stax,
As for the trees, I got nothing other than pine.
As for the zoo, not sure it is the same one but we went to a zoo near wildwood, close to cape may, impressive bald eagle exhibit. Did you see it by chance? Those birds are massive!
 
I think it was the Cape May County Zoo. As for the eagles...there were only 2. If thats what you're talking about, yes, they were huge.
 
That is 100% Pitch Pine. You can tell by the pine needles growing directly out of the trunk in the one photo. You have to be careful putting a tree stand in them, Ive slid straight to the bottom a few times, bark comes right off.
