My last visit to my phenology site was again a little bittersweet. It was so nice to see how green and bright my spot has gotten, but I was sad that this marked the end of my visits. Since my last visit, all the snow has melted, and so many plants have started blooming. Centennial …

iNaturalist Bioblitz!
For the iNaturalist Bioblitz, I decided to head down to the Intervale and explore the trails by the river. I had a great time walking along the trails and enjoying some sunshine. Everything was so green!! It finally feels like spring in Burlington and I am so excited about it. Using iNaturalist was super fun …
Spring Break
I live in Burlington, so over break I didn’t have much of a change of scenery, but I did visit a new location. I decided to go to Red Rocks Park, a trail system on the edge of Burlington and South Burlington right by the water. Since it is in Burlington, it has the same …
iNaturalist!!

Second Site Visit!
It was quite the adventure getting to my site today. The rain from the past couple of days flooded the Intervale and created a huge swampy river right over the path to get to my site. It was about 1.5-4 ft deep depending on where you were and the only way to my site was …
First Phenology Site Visit!
I chose the Intervale Center as the location of my Phenology Site. To get here, I biked down Main St., turned down North Prospect St. then rode straight down Intervale Rd. until I got to the trail head for the walking paths. I walked straight down the path until I got to a clearing by …
