Objective this week: To identify common trees in Kansas through field work. Bark and leaf identification will be a major theme this week.
Usually, this is reserved for the first few weeks of the second semester; but with the 50-ish degree weather this week, it may be the best time to get out to look at them so we're going for it while we can!!
