Tuesdays are special at Northern Community Radio because we focus on climate and nature. When school is in session, we are even more jazzed than normal because young phenologists across Minnesota when call in their classroom phenology reports.This week we heard from kids in Kelliher, Virginia, Grand Rapids, Hill City, Two Harbors and Northfield! We also had reports from adults at Hill Lake and Deerwood. Roaming skunks, biting perch, juncos, the sucker moon and moose sitings are just a few golden nuggets from today's reports. Check them all out to find out what's happening across northern Minnesota! You can send along a note to report what you've observed outside by emailing us or leaving a voice message at 218-999-9876! Also, don't forget to check out the KAXE-KBXE Season Watch Facebook page!
