This was my first week visiting my phenology site. In case anyone was wondering how to get there, you pretty much just follow the trail through Centennial Woods and take a left at the first fork, and then you just continue on down the wooden walkways until you reach the stream.
Anyway, I identified some trees and plant species while I was there. Most of the area was covered by White Aster plants, as well as a fair amount of Canadian Goldenrod. Both of those species grew alongside the river on it’s riparian buffer. There were not many woody plants in the area, but I did see a buckthorn tree and another tree that I could not identify. I’ll have to go back later with my notes.
