2018 venture vermont: identify three habitat types by your house

i guess i could just call them forest, field, and grassland, but i just got a copy of wetland, woodland, wildland so i think i can do a little better.

this here is the verge of a section of northern hardwood forest.

it may be a mesic red oak variant,but it is an area that has undergone considerable disturbance and being sure requires more study than i have time for this week.

soon, though.

here's a beaver meadow,  most likely a shallow emergent marsh.

this grassland used to be mowed, but isn't anymore.
