:-) For being a largish urban area, Minneapolis is chock full of green space. On my way to work and running most of my errands, I drive past two lakes and a creek. I often see red tailed hawks and eagles and, seasonally, egrets and herons. I love watching the weeping willows on one bank of Lake Nokomis as they change through the seasons. "Phenology is the study of periodic plant and animal life cycle events and how these are influenced by seasonal and interannual variations in climate, as well as habitat factors. Examples include the date of emergence of leaves and flowers, the first flight of butterflies and the first appearance of migratory birds, the date of leaf colouring and fall in deciduous trees." So, its the observation of nature and its changes over time. Gardening taps into that, of course. But a conversation that is only about gardening is an Entwife conversation. A conversation about all of nature and how its changing - in your backyard or neighborhood - is for all Ents. :-)
