Over spring break I visited my same location at Indian Brook Reservoir in Essex VT, as before. The location was very similar to how it was during winter break. Before break there was little snow and not much evidence of animal activity. This last time was after the large snows had fallen and the fluctuating temperatures had melted away much of the snow.

Compared to my phenology spot in Burlington, the two are very similar. I would describe both as Upland Forest and Woodland. It is this tree community because of the canopy cover as well as the tree species. There are Eastern White Pines, Red Maple, Sugar Maple, and White Birch to name a few of the diverse location. There wasn’t much undergrowth because of the snow covering the forest floor.

My location is an outdoor recreation location where people can fish, swim, hike, and participate in all kinds of leisurely water sports like canoeing and kayaking. While looking for animal and bird species, I saw a few unidentifiable birds that quickly flew by.

Here are a few pictures of my location.
