Another long morning of phenology
Nobody knew the protocol, apparently
Gretel sunk our visors one by one
Until 12:30 we toiled in the sun
So much end of flowering to observe
The plants have been thriving at Staffanson Preserve
Into boots our feet slid after lunchtime fun
For Hegg Lake had much more work to be done
On the hills we tagged more angustifolia flowers
Lots of us also helped Taylor and Amy for hours
If only we understood those rogue Echinacea plants…
Another cruel joke by Team Pallida, perchance??
Measuring baby hybrids for Taylor’s experiment!
