First Phenology Post of Spring Semester! (1/24/24)

This is my Phenology spot located in the heart of Centennial woods! Since I have last been there in the fall not much has changed. There is definitely some more snow on the ground, at least 2ish inches still fill the forest floor here. All of the deciduous hardwoods have zero leaves remaining, unlike in the fall when a few red oaks had a few leaves still lingering. The Coniferous hardwoods like the Eastern Hemlock and Norther White Pine are unchanged besides being topped with snow!

As far as tracking animals in this spot, all i was able to find were some human bootprints and their accompanying dog. Unlike the fall where I was able to find little pinecone seed piles from red squirrels, nothing from the woods has visited my spot in some time. Just some old pinecone piles covered in snow remain.

I am excited to be back visiting my Phenology Spot and hopefully I will be able to track some cool animals throughout the snowy winter!
