Plant Phenology in Your Backyard with Project Budburst | Wildlife Biology for Kids Club

Deepen your learning about phenology by getting to know individual plants through tracking their life stages (phenophases) using Project Budburst. You’ll observe and document the changes plants experience in a year - from leaves and flowers budding to fruits ripening to leaves changing color and eventually falling off in autumn. Learn how you can contribute valuable data for scientific research, especially in the context of climate change. I show you how to use the Budburst app by tracking specific trees in my backyard.
