Howdy y’all, and happy Bioblitzing! I had a lot of fun –more fun than I thought I’d have– out in Centennial Woods near my phenology site visiting one last time, and I brought my good camera so I could take some pictures for the Bioblitz. For starters, it was such a nice day; it was […]

I’m so excited to get to make this post. My phenology site here in Burlington is in Centennial Woods, and I’ve felt from my first day there way back during our self-guided walk of the forest that it reminded me of one of my favorite places back home: the Middlesex Fells Reservation. It’s a fair […]

Howdy y’all 🤙🏽 I know I’m posting a little late, but yesterday afternoon I grabbed my NR pal I went down to Centennial with a few weeks ago, and we walked over to Potash Brook to see if we couldn’t find any signs of life. Going back to the fall when all of NR 1 […]

Howdy, y’all! I made a choice yesterday. That choice was going to Centennial Woods even though it was about 3°F with windchills down under -10°F. I grabbed a buddy whose phenology site is also in Centennial, and we headed over in the afternoon, about 1:30-2:00 pm. Somewhere along the way, our eyelashes, eyebrows, and even […]

This week’s visit consisted of some quiet time at my spot just trying to get in-tune with the environment and […]

I got up early this morning and made my way over to Centennial woods. This wasn’t my first time visiting this forest, but I was the first time touring and studying my phenology site on my own. With heavy rain yesterday, I was ecstatic to go into the woods and ruck through the marsh a […]
