Every Tuesday we talk phenology during the KAXE/KBXE Morning Show.  During our "Talkback" time, we compile the nature reports from listeners and share them with the world.  What are you noticing outside?  We'd love to hear about it.  Give us a call at 218-999-9876, send us an email or check out our KAXE/KBXE Season Watch on Facebook and join in a conversation there.  

As a mail carrier in rural Grand Rapids, Minn., for 35 years, John Latimer put his own stamp on a career that delivered more than letters. Indeed, while driving the hundred-mile round-trip daily route, he passed the time by observing and recording seasonal changes in nature, learning everything he could about the area’s weather, plants and animals, and becoming the go-to guy who could answer customers’ questions about what they were seeing in the environment.
