After coming back to my phenology place again about 2 weeks later, most of the trees have no leaves left. However, there were still a few Sugar Maples that seemed to have almost all of their leaves left, and a basswood that had quite a few left. All the bittersweet that previously wrapped around other trees and bordered the path near the sand where all leaf-less as well. Something Interesting I observed is the velocity of the water. The section of the pond that is closest to my spot is significantly calmer, while where it is connected to the Winooski River it is very fast and has white water. During this visit, I came later in the day and got to see the sunset over the pond.
