Pear

These flowering trees grow everywhere around here. I think they're Bradford pears but I'm not sure. Either way, they're so beautiful and remind me of how all the cherry trees are in Japan. It's so relaxing to watch the petals fall in the wind

Pears are in bloom! Well, one of my pear trees anyway. The other one has flower buds, probably a day or two behind.

18 April 2025 - Friday Field Notes

Spring blooms. Of course, it's supposed to snow this weekend, so we'll see if the flowers on the trees make it. Amelanchier alnifolia - Serviceberry (top) and Pyrus sp. - Pear (bottom)

The low growing plants are more used to the flux in temperatures. Viola nuttallii - Nuttall's Violet (left) and, I think, Helianthus maximiliani - Maximilian's Sunflower. (Continuing the tradition of naming plants and animals after a bunch of white guys who "discovered" them. If anyone knows any OG names, I'm down to hear them.)

Fun fact: Honey Bees are an introduced species in North America. The majority of native Bees in North America are typically solitary, don't live in hives, and have a bunch of different nesting strategies. As to whether or not this is actually a Digger Bee nest, I can't say, it could be a number of other insect species too, but I feel pretty honored that this bug decided to raise the next generation in one of the native plant garden beds.

Antilocapra americana - Pronghorn. What're you all staring at?

I also did get to live out my dreams of being a Beaver! One of the Beaver dam analogs we installed. Still needs a lot of work and will probably need upkeep throughout the season. Those rodents are definitely better engineers than we are, let me tell you. It was a lot of work but hellaciously fun. Spent most the morning slinging mud around. Walking in the mud is no joke though, my feet kept getting stuck and I fell over at one point trying to rearrange sticks.
