Dairy Bush GigaPan - 113 - October 26 2011

Year 3 - Week 09 - 360 ̊

Another cool, rainy, wet fall week. One field Malaise trap appears to have been stolen this week (?) while the others survived the rain. The canopy gets more and more spars. Cloudy, rainy and cool this morning. Really a blustery fall day. 7 C with 100% relative humidity. A very dark morning - and unfortunately, I ended up over exposing the first 2/3rds of the pano while I was checking traps.

I've extracted images from a year of Dairy Bush GigaPans to illustrate the rapid decomposition of the leaf litter in this forest associated with the presence of non-native worms. The forest floor is changing! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRRv09_oF5w
