Phenology is the rhythmic biological nature of events as they relate to climate. Tuesday mornings during our Phenology Talkback we share phenology reports and questions from listeners and area students. We heard from six classrooms this week and the kids reported spring action everywhere!
Sofia and Hawley in Cohasset report longer days and warmer weather...
Harvey in Hill City reports flickers and loons...
Maizee and Macie in Pike Lake note raindrops on branches and frogs calling...
Adeline reports red-winged blackbirds and killdeer from North Shore Community School...
Hope and Emmy's report from Baxter includes morning cloak butterflies and thunderstorms...
Leah lists sightings of a pregnant beaver, pelicans, and a bat in Northfield!
Don't hesitate to send along your observations! We'd love to hear from you.
If you are a teacher who would like more information about the Phenology Curriculum, email John, we'd love to have your students involved!
