Phenology Exercise

In this exercise, I went to Peter's Canyon Regional Park in Southern California and observed plant Phenology. I observed both flowering and leaf phenology and their characteristics. First off, I went off trail and captured the cacti which had a budding flower on the top of it. It had not fully reached flower. Secondly, the poison oak was a bare leaf phenology. It seemed well foliated and not dry. Thirdly was a plant that species is yet to be defined, but I took a picture of it in its budding stage and flowering stage.
