Nature’s Calendar: Moving Through July with Larry Weber

The thirty-one days of July offer continuous observations of Nature. Join Larry Weber, author of Backyard Almanac: A 365-Day Guide to Your Northern Backyard, to look at the phenological changes with the local flora and fauna as we progress from the Summer Solstice of June and delve into mid-summer. Besides being hot, these days are full of interesting happenings right in our own backyards.

Larry Weber is a retired science teacher and an author of many different nature books, including Butterflies of the Northwoods, Fascinating Fungi of the North Woods, Spiders of the Northwoods, A Guide to Webwatching, and In a Patch of Goldenrods. He also writes a weekly Nature Column for the Duluth News Tribune and has two weekly Phenology Radio Programs. He lives on a forested former farm in Carlton County, MN where he takes daily walks; watching critters and the seasonal changes.
