I have now kept at least a year of phenological events...and now on the side bar, I can reference the label for phenology, and compare events from month to month.
That's great! I'm hoping that putting garden photos on my blog will help me keep better track of when things happen each year.
ReplyDeleteLet me also put in a plug for the National Phenology Network's Citizen Science activity, Project Budburst.

They're asking people to keep track of the dates of certain events, so they can get a nationwide picture of variability. It's a neat project, and I think participatory science is awesome!
Very good. I wish I could get myself to do this. I must Imust...
