30 days! Two squares today - Grande Pointe 14PA41 & Saint Germain 14PA31
Yesterdays balmy temperatures stole me away to Pinawa -- so today we catch up!
Grande Pointe 14PA41 is shared by the City of Winnipeg and the neighbouring RM of Springfield, RM of Taché and RM of Ritchot. The Floodway runs across the northwest corner. The Seine River meanders through the square from east to west intersecting with the floodway via the Red River Floodway Siphon. Agriculture dominates the land use in this square. The land being very flat and somewhat poorly drained, a network of ditches and drainage channels has been constructed.
At the time of posting, 16 observations had been uploaded by 13 observers including @nadeaujp, and @emilythor . 14 species have been identified so far--plants (9 species) in the lead, with birds (3) next in line. Lots of room to add new species in this square!
Saint Germain 14PA31 is shared by the City of Winnipeg and the neighbouring RM of Ritchot. The Red River flows north through the square with the Floodway branching to the north east near its center. The La Salle River meanders up from the south west corner to meet with the Red. Parks in this area include Maple Grove Park, Kings Park, Henteleff Park and St Norbert Provincial Park.
At the time of posting, 1,831 observations had been uploaded by 240 observers led @seraphinpoudrier . 572 species have been identified so far--plants (215 species) in the lead, with insects (167) next in line.
