Have you got an 'ology ?

Would you, or a member of your family like to have an 'ology ?  Then why not become a Phenologist !
Phenology  is the study of the times of recurring natural phenomena such as, for example, bird migration or plants coming into leaf. These vary from year to year according to the climate and the recorded data is a valuable source of evidence as to how wild life is responding  to climate change. The Woodland Trust has 50,000 people involved with the UK Phenology Network. If you would like to become a recorder or simply just keep up to date with the results as they come in, click this link.http://www.naturescalendar.org.uk/your_first_visit.htm
