Author and naturalist Larry Weber observes the final week of summer, noting the warmer temps (10 degrees above average for September!). The leaves are already starting to change: Maples, sumacs, dogwoods are turning red, but so are Virginia creeper and poison ivy. Yellow leaves to look out for are the ash, birch and poplar trees. Birds are migrating – this is "hawk weekend" in the Duluth area. Geese and cranes are in motion, as are the warblers, thrushes and flickers, among others.
Phenology with local naturalist Larry Weber every Friday morning at 8:20 on Northland Morning.
