PHENOLOGY CALENDAR
A Look at the Season's Main Events
Virginia Barlow
Second Week of February
Mating season for foxes is at its peak and fox tracks are more common as these animals search for mates.Minute cattail seeds, each with a tiny parachute, are dispersed in the fall and winter. Skunk cabbage buds formed in autumn. They melt their way through the snow and are usually blooming now in southern New England and New York. When not confined by deep snow to a deeryard, a healthy white-tailed deer eats between six and eight pounds of twigs a day. |
