After looking around at the large variety of trees to choose from, I settled on a tall, thin paper birch. I identified the paper birch firstly by its white, chalky bark. The peeling, papery strips of bark peeled back in spots where I could see the pinky-grey inner bark. I was able to distinguish this paper birch from its lookalikes because I knew that paper birches thrive in wetter areas, making the Salmon Hole the perfect environment for them. I could also identify the paper birch by its buds, as it only had sharp, pointed, lateral buds. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/jfiguero-\/files\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-5.39.12-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-66\" width=\"220\" height=\"342\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/jfiguero-\/files\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-5.39.12-PM.png 616w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/jfiguero-\/files\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-5.39.12-PM-193x300.png 193w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 220px) 100vw, 220px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/jfiguero-\/files\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-5.33.08-PM-763x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-64\" width=\"268\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/jfiguero-\/files\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-5.33.08-PM-763x1024.png 763w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/jfiguero-\/files\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-5.33.08-PM-223x300.png 223w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/jfiguero-\/files\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-5.33.08-PM-768x1031.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/jfiguero-\/files\/2023\/03\/Screenshot-2023-03-12-at-5.33.08-PM.png 1040w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 268px) 100vw, 268px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This weekend, I visited the Salmon Hole to find a tree for this phenology post.
