Growing Green

Today was a more wet, rainy day outside during phenology. The first thing that i noticed when walking to my area was that all the grass in the park is changing colors quickly to fresh green, spring, grass. It reminds me of when you watch a video that is done in elapsed time so it shows the changing of seasons in a certain area. Just like on the weather channel. The trees have budded and grown greener since the last phenology outing and the water level in the creek was almost a whole inch higher.

  1. Ha! Wouldn't it be fun to actually create a time-lapse video of the changes as we observe them out there? I am definitely storing that idea away for next year!

  2. I know what you mean with the rapidly changing colors! It seems like blossoms appear overnight, but unfortunately disappear in a short time, too!
