Phenology is the study of annual events in nature that are influenced by seasonal changes such as climate and weather. Have you ever noticed when Baltimore orioles first arrived in the spring, or the first rose blooms of summer? If so, you were observing a phenological event! Aldo Leopold recorded phenological observations throughout his whole life, and has passed on his love of the harmonies of nature to generations since.
