Despite my disappointment in the lack of a winter wonderland, I still had a very enjoyable experience wandering around rock point at sunset. At first I went to my actual spot and spent about 10 minutes exploring the area. The cedar and hemlock trees are still living their best lives with their needles, but there are no deciduous trees with living leaves on them. There was one white oak with dead leaves hanging on along with a few beeches, but most were bare. There were a few small plants with small seed pods, pictured above, but I don&#8217;t know the species. I could not really find much evidence of animals in the area where my spot is. I didn&#8217;t have my blue jay friend this time which was a little sad but excepted. I was honestly a little disappointed with what I found at my spot, so I decided to wander. On my little walk I heard a high pitched bird song. I also saw evidence of woodpeckers, the most recent example being the birch tree pictured above. There were fresh bits of wood scattered on the ground below, which was how I found it. It seems like there was less activity in general, but things were still happening. As I finished my wandering and returned to the spot I noticed the sun was setting over the mountains and decided to sit, call my parents, and watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I were to describe what I like most about my spot I would say that I enjoy that I can find some really cool ecology, but also have a spot where I can sit and watch a sunset while talking to my mom. The natural community of the cedar bluffs is really cool and unique, but beyond that it is just a really beautiful spot with a great view. I just feel happy being there and exploring. I also really like that it is not a spot that I go to often, like Centennial, because it makes the trip feel new and more like an adventure and the spot is more special.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was expecting snow for my final phenology spot post of the semester, but we don&#8217;t always get what we want.
