My friend Jack and I spent two hours walking around Burlington last week observing all the interesting phenological changes. One thing that stuck out to me were the amount of bird nests and birds.
Other interesting changes in Burlington can be seen at the lake front. As temperatures rise Lake Champlain’s frozen layer appears to be thawing in places.
I didn’t find any exotic tracks in the snow by the water front but definitely saw lots of dog tracks! (and lots of cute dogs on walks by the waterfront).
