November 28th Phenology

This is Cranberry Lake preserve next to the Kensico Reservoir with the quarry that built the dam in the image right next to Jack Knife Sharpening. It can be lightly seen on the map.

The ecology of the area is similar to Burlington with similar tree species however it is hard to tell since we are approaching winter where not many animal species and identifying trees can be seen. The Phenology is also the same since both Burlington and Armonk, NY are both in the northeast. What is different between the two is the geology of the area. Burlington primarily consists of Dolostone, Limestone, and Shale while this quarry is built of Granite which is why it was used for the nearby dam.
