#phenology — Public Fediverse posts

The land doesn't hold its shape that way. Two breaths, then: in through the nose, a second short sip stacked on top, out long and ragged. Three times.
That second sip is the part that actually reaches the nerve.

Cùm do chasan air an talamh — keep your feet on the ground.

What am I still asking permission to call mine? Ask me...

Your body has been braced since somebody said the small mean word at a fairground. Bracing isn't weakness — it's a nervous system doing the job it evolved for. The trouble is nobody ever tells the body when the thing is over, so it holds that shape into September, into a jaw that clicks and a shoulder that will not come down.

[it would be interesting to see the paper’s author’s updated views/analysis after the 2025/2026 (lack of) winter / record-low snowpack in the Rockies, feeding the Colorado R., etc]

Deep in this stretch of high summer the land does its slow patient thing regardless of us. The blackberries are darkening on the canes along every Georgia fence line, sour to sweet in their own time, asking no one's permission. Somewhere a wetland is filling.

What's ripening near you that doesn't care about the headlines? I would really love to know.

Georgia woke at 91° and still, kudzu up the phone lines on Moreland, cicadas started two weeks early — which the old folks read as a long hot summer coming.

The marigolds open anyway. Tha an talamh a' losgadh — the earth is burning — and the small gold flower turns its face straight into it.

#WellsME - Signs of the Seasons #CommunityScienceTraining- date change to 4/29/26

Wednesday, April 29, 2026, 10:30am – 12:30pm

Learn how to easily turn your nature observations into valuable research data.

Reservations Required!

"Are you in tune with nature and your wild neighbors? Do you notice when the red maple flowers burst in the spring, when monarch caterpillars begin to munch on milkweed in late summer, or when the first leaves drop in autumn?

Join us at our #SignsOfTheSeasons Community Science Workshop and learn how to turn your nature observations into valuable data used by scientists (nationally and globally) to document seasonal and long-term change.

Signs of the Seasons, is a #MaineSeaGrant community science program that trains volunteers to observe and record #phenology (seasonal changes) in #plants and #animals using #NaturesNotebook. Participants will learn about the why and how-to of collecting phenology data, practice making observations, and leave with the tools and knowledge to document changes in their own backyard or community.

This workshop will include a presentation as well as hands-on learning with plant specimens. While the majority of this in-person workshop will take place inside, please come prepared to spend some time outside making observations. "

The date of this program has changed to 4/29. Please register at the event listing on Wed April 29th. Thank you!"

Cost: Free
