I chose Centennial Woods as my phenology site. The specific location I focused on was a large incline in the trail that is a home to multiple species of trees and vegetation. I love doing hikes or nature walks, as they always make me feel calm and happy. This specific spot in Centennial Woods reminded me of my favorite trail from home at Rock Creek Park in Washington D.C.. Though some of the species may not be the same as the ones at home, the topography was similar, which made me exciting to focus on it. One is able to get to this spot by just following the trail, it is just past the small creek that has the bridge. The species that I observed included:
- American Beech
- Yellow Birch
- Eastern White Pine
- Intermediate Wood Fern
