What are some indicator signs of major changes on your land?

I recently went to this workshop about birds. We started talking about hemlock, how hemlock trees is this area are dying because of their roots getting wet. The dry ones are doing fine.

I been thinking insects are thought of as bad or invasive. I think insects are just doing what they are meant to do, like a janitor at a crime scene.

I think when the waters are going through major changes, the insects are sort of the indicators. They are killing of the plant maybe because the plant shouldn't be there. Nothing against the plant but the environment is changing, maybe that area will have a river going through it later down the line.

All this talk about the planet warming  up and magnetic field changing at a higher than normal rate than usual...I think nature is adapting and is sort of communicating to us what the planet is doing or will be doing.

One big example here. I see it a lot at our local creek. The creek used to fork and run a lot more. Now a beaver pulled up and damned one side of the fork. The side that running now on the creek is the side closest to the road.

Now at first I'm thinking them beavers man. Always up to no good. But the beaver is just doing what she is made to do. This is telling me that something in the water table underground or on a scale deeper than what meets the eye is happening. The beaver is naturally widening the stream. What is she trying to to tell us?

Why would it widen it towards the road. When there was a perfectly big fork going away from it. What's crazy is the water past the road side has been drying up over the decades. I'm talking wells drying up and municipalities that hate each other reaching out to share water on a massive scale.

I think the earth is really changing man. In a way unlike before. at least not in anyone life time or written histories lifetime.

All this lantern fly talk, invasive species etc. I think the planet is seriously going to change. On a scale we can't fathom. I'm talking like time to redraw maps. I see it nature all the time. I just never read it right until that workshop.

Migration patterns of the animals are changing too. All animals are guided by the magnetic field on the earth. That's there compass.

Well I just wanted to share that little bit. Im curious anyone with any size of land that you had for decades or years.

When you noticed a big change happening in the land what were some indicator of signs you noticed that pointed to this getting ready to happen?

My property has a wetland/vernal pool area. I moved in four years ago and noticed that there was a trench that drained the water from this area that led off my property. I dammed it up to keep the water in my landscape. I have noticed species of frogs showing up that were not here when I moved in. Not a major change but a change nonetheless. Another thing I noticed was some of the plastic trash I would uncover from time to time is disintegrating, I sure hope that trend gets accelerated. For the past couple of years I noticed that every year has a different prominent weather event that lasts a good chunk of the year. Two years ago it was rain, last year it was drought, I think this year it’s going to be wind. I believe the coyotes (coy wolf) here are filling in the role the other predators left behind.

Wow thanks for sharing. Do those signs help you figure out what to do to accommodate that change in your land?

I'm wondering if the elements are like the key communicators of a sign of a big change, then animals. The animals must respond to the elements because they are in tune. Like an earthquake getting ready to happen they are the first ones to go for safe ground.
