Phenology is the rhythmic biological nature of events as they relate to climate. Phenology Talkbacks are an opportunity for us to hear what you are noticing outside.  This week, in addition to a phenomenal classroom report including sundogs, snowy owls, and coyotes, phenologist John Latimer heard from several listeners!

Don't hesitate to send along your observations. We'd love to hear what you are noticing in your neck of the woods!  If you are a teacher who would like more information about the Phenology Curriculum, email John, we'd love to have your students involved!

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.
