Phenology blog

To the left we have bunny tracks, in the middle we have rose hips( I could be wrong there are multiple red berries), and to the right is my phenology spot.

I’m really excited to share with you all the beauty of the snow. I was so excited to get out and explore my site in a new scenery. I really enjoyed exploring Centennial Woods with fresh powder on the ground.

Below we have tracks found on a wood log going across a stream right on my spot. I have a few guesses for who this could be…

My lovely friend that made my day exploring, the great Barred owl

Siting for 15 minutes, complete silence was a therapeutic experience that I would now incorporate in life whenever I find myself in beautiful places.

Here is just a sketch of the view I had while sitting in silence for 15 minutes.

Since arriving to Burlington when I first visited this place was full of ferns and the trees had their beautiful green leafs. Now coming back to Centennial Woods Ive noticed mushrooms popping up and dead leaves on the forest floor. It leaves quite an impression on me to see such change over time in a single place and the beauty that fallows each season.

Announcement

I have had to switch phenology spots due to the access of getting there.

My new spot is now a lovely area in Centennial Woods where a flowing creek is moving through it and hillside of large red maples and Eastern white pines.
