It’s almost full summer in the forest!
Hi,
The trilliums are going pink, the ferns are out, the broad-leaf trees have all leafed out, and the mosquitoes are here – so I think the early spring ephemerals are done for this year. It’s time to look for early summer flowers, turtles, and the birds of late spring & summer (e.g. warblers, etc.)!
If you have not noticed, the MVFN Lanark County Biodiversity project hit a milestone a few weeks ago -- 10,000 observations! Lanark County has a total of 65,000 observations on iNaturalist, so our MVFN project has contributed 17% to the biodiversity record of Lanark County.
Congratulations to all observers, keep posting, and have a great summer!
Regards,
.. Denis (denisag2)
