2nd Visit to Phenology Spot!!!!

After sitting quietly, taking in all the sounds and feelings, I had quite a relaxing experience. I heard the sound of the water in Lake Champlain shifting around and splashing against the side of the rocks below. Also, I heard the sound of the wind blowing through the trees making the leaves rustle around as they got carried away by the wind. Another thing I noticed was the feeling of the crisp wind blowing against my face. Overall, using my senses to engage with my place helped to get a better understanding and feeling of my spot as a whole.

Since my previous visit, the only change I’ve noticed is the foliage disappearing and a decrease in temperature. The trees in my area are now bare, except for the coniferous trees, with the leaves covering the forest floor. There’s also less greenery in the forest as the vegetation and such is starting to die out for the season.
