There are also signs along the trail that help identify the plant and animal species that are commonly found in the area. Towards the middle of the park there are two small gardens and throughout the park there are multiple bird feeders.

class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-background\">The phenology of the Memorial Waterway Park is different than the phenology of Centennial Woods. At the Memorial Water Park, it does not get as cold as it does in Vermont so there is less of a change. The plants in the area do not change colors like the trees do at Centennial Woods and there is leaf litter on the ground but not as much as there is in Centennial Woods. The plants at the Memorial Waterway Park did look like they were dying a little bit but that was only a small portion of the plants, most of them looked healthy and alive. To give back to nature, I picked up trash in the area and also made sure there wasn&#8217;t anything destroyed such as the garden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-94bc23d7 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1531-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107\" style=\"width:312px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1531-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1531-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1531-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1531-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1531-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1528-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89\" style=\"width:311px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1528-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1528-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1528-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1528-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/kkendra\/files\/2023\/11\/IMG_1528-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For my new spot during break I stayed at a friends house at Oak Island, North Carolina where we visited the nature center at the Memorial Waterway Park.
