UVM Field Naturalist Program

The Field Naturalist Program’s Friday Field Walks series kicked off this afternoon with Robert leading a journey into the cute and tiny world of mosses. Which ones do you recognize? 👀

Team Winter Ecology ‘24 met up in the field for another outing this afternoon. They explored the boundary between the Green Mountains and Northern Piedmont biophysical regions of Vermont while zooming in on some small stuff.

Never a bad time to take a look at the little things. Hand lens out for lichens and mosses!

FN cohort member Will Durkin takes a closer look:

🐝Resin bees in Centennial Woods? The waxy plug of a hole in this standing dead is evidence to suggest there are resin bees overwintering here.👍

But, was"Caitlin Bain" in Centennial Woods? This hypothesis is also supported by the findings of this investigation😆
