My phenology place is nestled away off of the beaten path in Centennial woods, to get there enter the woods and walk roughly half of the loop traveling to the left, after passing the marsh like area take a right and head deep into the woods. The center point of this spot is marked by a large ash tree, and you will know you are in the right area as it is surrounded by smaller fallen trees.
Many leaves have fallen already in this area and much of the understory is composed of ferns, it is truly a beautiful spot, other plant life in the area includes small hearty flowers as well as numerous types of mushrooms.
As far as animal life all that I captured a photo of today was a common grey squirrel, although i’m sure there are many smaller species and insects in the area.
