How You Can Help Track Spring's Journey North Journey North's spring and fall programs are quite different. In the spring, a dozen different migrations and signs of spring are tracked. (For a preview of next spring's program, follow the link below.) While spring is the focus of the Journey North program, we hope the fall "Journey South" program will convey the cyclical nature of the seasons. (Perhaps someday we may track fall and spring equally. However, as you will see in the spring, collecting data from hundreds of observers is not an easy task. Since we don't have the staff to manage both seasons well, data collection in the fall is much more limited.) To Sample the Journey North Spring Program: See Spring, 1997 Preview Spring, 1998
