Hello Everybody!!
Today was an absolutely gorgeous day to head down to Salmon Hole and check out my Phenology Spot!
The majority of the trees in my area had already lost their leaves (in just three weeks!), but there were a few that were still trying to hold onto their colors a bit longer.
As promised in the title, here is a map of my Phenology Spot. I like to sit on a fallen log looking directly over the river.
After drawing my map, I was able to do a bit of exploring, and found more fresh beaver tracks!
<—-so small!!!
I haven't seen a beaver yet, but I know they're out there! On the walk to my spot, I saw fresh evidence of beaver activity: a tree that has almost been chewed down. The teeth marks looked pretty fresh, so I could've just missed them!
<—the red strip of missing bark is why I think the damage looks so fresh.
Hope you have a lovely Monday! 🙂
