Welcome to the twentieth entry in our Backyard Science “Alphabet” series. Today’s Bucket is brought to you by the letter “T”.
Common Toadflax (Linaria Vulgaris) — Philadelphia, PA
The Daily Bucket is a regular feature of the Backyard Science group. It is a place to note any observations you have made of the world around you. Insects, weather, meteorites, climate, birds and/or flowers. All are worthy additions to the bucket. Please let us know what is going on around you in a comment. Include, as close as is comfortable for you, where you are located. Each note is a record that we can refer to in the future as we try to understand the patterns that are quietly unwinding around us.
