I’ve decided to return to my phenology spot from the fall, as it is a fairly short walk from my dorm and a relatively unknown location. I noticed on this return visit that the understory seems much more sparse and open. This is undoubtedly due to the heavy snowfall this area has seen in the last few (many) months. While there are many visible tracks at my location, they appear to belong primarily to smaller animals, as I couldn’t find any deer tracks. Among the tracks I followed were squirrels, rabbits, dogs, raccoons, and muskrats. However take these identifications with a grain of salt, as you can never be completely sure. Some of the twigs I managed to identify were sugar maple, and red oak.
I had some issues making the photos I took into viewable files, so instead I attached links to the PDF files.
