I returned to my old phenology spot after a long break. A lot had changed and I even got a little lost trying to find it because of the snow and ice on the trails. Once I made it though I was able to see the bare trees and some tracks left in the snow.
Along with the bare trees, I also heard fewer birds chirping. There was also ice covering some parts of the stream which changed the flow of the water. Speaking of the water, it was freezing and we decided we needed a little refresh after our long hike!
