Tuesdays mornings are special around here.  We hear the voices of students and our favorite KAXE/KBXE reporter, John Latimer.  For 33 years John Latimer has been noting the changes in his environment on the *Phenology Show.  A great way to find out more is to join our Season Watch page on facebook.  Post photos ask questions, learn something new everyday!

What have you been seeing? Are you a teacher and want to get your students to pay attention to the outdoors?  We are a resource for you!  Listen to the student reports and send us an email to see if John Latimer can come to your school.

*Phenology is the rhythmic biological events as they relate to climate.

John Latimer's Phenology Report for November 8th, 2016.

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.
