The other day I want on a walk in Centennial woods and went back to the same Northern Red Oak. I took out my phone and took some pictures to document if there was any change. After comparing the pictures I noticed that there was not much of a change since I had last been there.
The terminal bud on this Northern Red Oak still showed no signs of flowering. The overall condition of the forest was similar. The only change that I noticed was that there was less snow present due to the recent warm weather. I believe that in the next couple of weeks the forest will start to see some serious change with buds starting to flower. I am very excited to go back! After my walk I went back to my room and uploaded my pictures to iNaturalist.
