#naturejournaling — Public Fediverse posts

I keep a Perpetual Journal; here are my entries from my yard 1, 2 & 3 years ago this week: Ironwood & Pencil Cholla in bloom & a Lucy’s Warbler in a nest box. In 2026 our Ironwood haven’t bloomed; we have very few Cholla flowers & no Lucy’s Warblers in our nest boxes.😞

1 of the joys of keeping a Perpetual Journal is seeing what happened this week in previous years. Here’s my PJ art of Tucson nature observations 1, 2 & 3 years ago this week. In ‘23 we got snow. In ‘26 the temp’s been over 90°!
