MARCH<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It’s a bit ironic that this week we’re supposed to be looking for signs of spring and we just got the biggest snow of the year! But even with the deep snow there were still some signs of warmer weather approaching and animals re-awakening. The birds were the loudest I’ve heard them at my phenology spot since the fall. I used the Cornell bird app to identify Tufted Titmouse, Ring-billed Gull, Carolina Wren, and Brown Creeper from their calls. I also heard a woodpecker! The tree buds were not as obviously ready for spring. I didn’t see any that were really starting to change, but I did find some buds that looked ever so slightly enlarged. I identified them as Buckthorn, Boxelder, Yellow Birch and Red Maple. I also found two species of mammal tracks around my site that I identified one as a Red Squirrel and a Cottontail Rabbit. I didn’t see any signs of amphibians. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
