Today, I took a short jog to Salmon Hole to revisit the paper birch tree that I have chosen for this assignment. The warm spring weather has been an incentive to go outside. Noticing the trees on my way to the spot I already thought/knew that the trees would not have buds or flowers on their branches yet. However, I think that the warmer weather is an indicator that in the next couple of weeks we will start to see a change with the trees. When I reached Salmon Hole, I noticed the liveliness of the area. The birds were chirping, the Winooski River below was loud, there were people walking through the trails, and there were small flowers poking through the grass. I also saw a Robin, again, on my way out which might indicate that Salmon Hole is a good habitat for Robins and other birds.
