It's been a long day at the BioPark Botanic Garden. First, we made our usual Nature's Notebook observations. We've had to add a new cottonwood after that windstorm that severely damage the tree in Site #1. Here's a photo of Sandy taking a diameter measurement of the replacement sapling in Site #3.
Then after a quick bite for lunch, Sheila and I prepped for the last herbarium workshop of the summer. We had 5 high school students plus one councilor and they all enjoyed the session. They worked their way through 25 specimens, mounting and labeling them for us. Sometime in the next couple days, I'll have to move the dried pages out of the Atrium and back to the herbarium.
