My December Phenology Calendar

I'm celebrating one year of noting weather and natural phenomena in the world around me on on a phenology calendar.

It's been interesting - not only taking time to notice more - but also writing it down. 

This past month, I've been paying particular attention to the waning minutes of daylight, trying to depict the turnaround period when daylight hours stop diminishing and begin increasing. This December, this occurred over a 9-day period, between December 17 and 25.

I've decided to continue noting weather, personal activities, and wildlife I see in our neighbourhood in the coming months - but in a slightly different format.

It's an interesting and satisfying activity. I do need to work on improving my sketches of squirrels!
