Hello I have chosen to continue blogging the phenology at Centennial Woods at the same spot as last semester. Since my last visit I have noticed there was a lot more snow cover and a lot more ice. Almost all the plants in the area either had a thin layer of snow on them or they were buried under the snow.
The first three pictures on the left are some moss, some ferns, and a pine cone with a thin layer of snow. In the picture on on the right, it is showing the snow cover and under that snow are the ferns and leaf litter.
The red oak still had some leaves on it but they were brown and a little curled and the barberry has barley any berries left on it. At my spot there was not much wildlife present but I did hear lots of birds around the area and past my spot but further into centennial woods past my spot I did find some tracks in the snow.
