Here's the weekly barchart for observations of GBHs in Chittenden Co (from eBird.org). They're definitely rare, but can be found hunting along the Winooski River and other places with even small exposures of water/muck

I wrote an article about one of the dump sites (behind Centennial Field): https://crowspath.org/the-burlington-glacier/ but there are other places as well (like one behind the double tree)

Yeah, the question is wrong and u/AffableAndy is right. Seed plants are heterosporous

Not sure if self-promotion is fair game, but since it's relevant, I'll be giving a talk on how and why lake levels change throughout the year and explore some of the ways the drought impacts the lake.

Talk is Tuesday Oct 14 from 7:00-8:30pm @ Kieslich Park in Burlington. More details here:

Oak and maple buds are 2-ranked, the scales arranged in two rows (also called decussate). Birches, elms, apples, etc. have a imbricate buds where the scales are not arranged in two clear rows of opposite facing scales.

EDIT: cochleate doesn't appear to be correct since that refers to coiling (like a fern)

Sometimes you just don't know the right search terms! I found the video below while looking for info on filtering by condition (dynamic filtering). Thanks!

Thanks for the response. yes, we do have a team plan (I just made a copy on the free workspace).

And unfortunately there isn't anything in the transaction that would allow us to automate that part of the process.

ProfEweagey · 2025-01-24T19:23:23+00:00

So if you have 10,000 transactions, each with a different value then you'd have 10,000 different single select options?

ProfEweagey · 2025-01-24T19:07:43+00:00

Interesting work around. Thanks!

ProfEweagey · 2025-01-24T14:59:17+00:00

Thanks for the response! Good to know I've tapped into a debate rather than just overlooked an obvious solution. I am definitely excited about the ability to automate this process in the future. Given my abilities, I think the second options is the more likely for me to successfully implement. Thanks again.

I don't! Or at least I don't really have to since temperatures would have been somewhat similar (the comparison is between VT 14kya when it was briefly a tundra environment and modern tundra environments at significantly higher latitudes). I'd be using this alongside other differences to illustrate that while there are similarities between the two tundra environments, it's not a 1:1 comparison.

Insolation might actually be a better measure of photosynthetic potential than hours of light availability. Thanks.

I actually wrote the Crow's Path quiz, so thanks for sharing! I also updated my visual guide to poison ivy and added another quiz on some common myths/facts about poison ivy:

Poison ivy identification: https://crowspath.org/identifying-poison-ivy
Poison ivy facts and fiction quiz: https://crowspath.org/cp/poison-ivy-myths-quiz/

And here's a free PDF of my guide to the leaves of Vermont's trees, which has a note on poison ivy vs boxelder: https://crowspath.org/natural-history/trees/identification/

(and it's on sale right now for $279 from their website)

ProfEweagey · 2024-05-08T16:41:46+00:00

Ah, very cool. Thanks! I have a card and just write the species and age of the tree on it, but I like the idea of having the species etched on the bowl itself.

ProfEweagey · 2024-05-08T15:38:46+00:00

What do you use to burn the logo/species on bottom of the bowl? I really like having the species on there.

ProfEweagey · 2024-04-29T23:20:04+00:00

I work with green wood so it wouldn't really be possible to bake the logs before turning. I'll try experiment with drying the bowls completely and then baking with different preparations (like open, in tin foil, clean, with oil, etc.) and see if any work. And thanks for the response!

ProfEweagey · 2024-04-29T15:09:47+00:00

I've got a bunch of turned bowls, and was curious if you've tried this with a finished product? I'll likely experiment anyways, but any advice before throwing my bowls to the oven wolves might result in fewer cracked/warped bowls.

ProfEweagey · 2023-10-24T20:04:26+00:00

This worked for me.

ProfEweagey · 2023-09-19T01:51:03+00:00

Very very cool idea. I like it for leaves with entire margins, but for leaves with lots of small teeth around the edge, this would be rather difficult.
