You’ve already seen all of these, but I’m putting them up again so we don’t have a dark Monday. The days of this past week, in order. Saturday and Sunday photos from Dellinger’s Pond, Quincy, CA. The Daily Bucket is a nature refuge. We amicably discuss animals, weather, climate, soil, plants, waters and note life’s patterns. We invite you to note what you are seeing around you in your own part of the world, and to share your observations in the comments below. Each note is a record that we can refer to in the future as we try to understand the phenological patterns that are quietly unwinding around us. To have the Daily Bucket in your Activity Stream, visit Backyard Science’s profile page and click on Follow.
