Phenology in Febuary
In my last journey to my phenology site I was able to tell that it was still winter, but spring was almost here! The ducks were back, I could here birds chirping, and there was still snow on the ground are about the only major differences in the site. There was a slight breeze coming from the southwest making the winter/spring weather colder and more enjoyable. I didn't see anything to different from what is happening on the average day at the park.

Maybe you could have explained more about your site instead of just the sounds and weather you hear/feel when you're there.
ReplyDeleteLike is there a tree in your site, what type of tree?
How high is the water by your site?
Etc.
I like Kas' suggestions! The notion that spring is on it's way as evidenced by your duck sightings and bird sounds is nice, but I'd like to know how these sightings truly compare to the observations you have made throughout the winter months... did the ducks actually migrate? Was the park void of birds all winter?
