Species Observations:

Walking through Centennial Woods I observed many species that were greatly recognizable in the greater Burlington area. Northern Cardinals, Downy Woodpeckers, Chipping Sparrows, and Ruby Crowned Kinglets were extremely active around and in my phenology spot. The growth on the nearby trees and vegetation was vibrant and representative of springs phenological patterns. Ostrich Fern Fiddleheads, Clovers, and Blossoms could also been seen throughout the woods. This phenology site visit was part of my contribution to the City Nature Challenge, my lab group observed 85 species during the challenge, and I personally observed 15.
