Phenology with local naturalist Larry Weber every Friday morning at 8:20 on Northland Morning.

Backyard Almanac: A Childlike View of June

Maple "helicopter" seeds in the grass
Luke Moravec

This week, Judy Gibbs fills in for Larry Weber and brings the insights of inquisitive grandchildren to the airwaves, and the musings about the outdoors aren't just for the young.

There are lessons for everyone to learn about June and all of its phenological happenings. Goslings are grounded until they learn to fly, but why are their parents also not able to fly? Lightning bugs aren't bugs, and fireflies aren't flies - so what are they?

Judy gets to the heart of these questions and others posed by her grandchildren.

You can hear Backyard Almanac every Friday at 8:20am on Northland Morning.

Luke Moravec is the host for Northland Morning on The North 103.3. He’s also a local actor, musician and writer. He loves puzzles, riddles and fun mysteries.
