Levi the dog, in a blue harness, is sniffing around night-party fire pits in a forest. The trees & ground are bare between late winter & early spring. In the closest of 2 stone-ringed firepits are fake red flowers.
The flash of red off in the bush caught my attention and when I reached the spot, discovered it was fake flowers in a 'hidden' night-party firepit site. Levi found the quality of sniffing to be highly interesting!

Whitetail deer in a natural forest setting. A side view with head turned to look at the camera.
On March 21, 5 years ago, Levi & I spent about 1/2 hour catching glimpses of this beauty in the park! Finally she gained enough trust to leave the protection of the forest and give us a closer look over.

Dozens of golden coloured fall leaves still hanging on a bush against a background out-of-focus wintery forest in mid March.
Mid March colour in the forest is still mostly a remnant of fall.

Cool episode of @scifri.bsky.social about rewilding urban areas by planting native mini-forests. I love the idea of a 4m x 4m pocket of forest generating its own microclimate.

We are partnering with #CityParksFoundation and connecting youth with their #urbanforest. Students are helping us #steward their neighborhood #streettrees while learning about #greencareers and how to lead environmental action in their community!

Conceptual diagram illustrating (a) the experimental design and (b) the mass, C, N and P remaining of green and senesced litter on lawn and soil surfaces under conditions with or without soil fauna.
The #GreenLitter and senescent litter (Cinnamomum camphora) generated by #TropicalCyclones exhibit distinctly different distribution patterns on the lawn and soil microhabitats.

The City of Ottawa released the results of a Tree Canopy Mapping last September.
So what is this, and why is it important? And above all, how is our urban tree canopy doing?

What if a developer can’t meet the tree requirement?
The tree payment-in-lieu, or fee-in-lieu as it’s commonly known, is an option for when developers can’t meet the infrastructure requirements for #treecanopy preservation and planting.

Celebrating the New Year of the Trees with some dirt on our hands! 🌳✡️
GIPL was honored to be joined by Adamah ATL and Trees Atlanta for this annual planting event in southwest Atlanta. Together, volunteers got 75 trees in the ground to celebrate Tu B'Shvat!

#HackberryTrees have raised bumps and/or ridges on the bark, even when young. Viewed from the side, the bumps/ridges have multiple layers. Try some winter tree identification - go outside this weekend and see if you can locate one among the many wonders found in our #urbanforest!
