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. We heard from several schools and listeners this week. It seems spring is on its way. Yay!
Kids in Cohasset report birds eating apples, a dead bat and how the sunlight impacts snowmelt..
Wolves being seen and heard around the Proctor school district made their report this week...
Kids at North Shore Community School report, among other things, that the sun is at a higher angle these days and a deer poops 20-30 times a day!
Kids in northfied report a flock of robins, loud birdsongs in the morning, and a squirrel inside the classroom!
We heard from several other listeners this week who noted bears, skunks and mourning doves... all signs of spring!
Don't hesitate to send along your observations. We'd love to hear about what you are seeing 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!
