Field Study #2


Date: 9/26/17
Time: 6:02
Length of Day: 18:02 hours
Temperature:  90 degrees
Climate Conditions: Extremely warm outside, with an extreme humidity. In the picture it looks as if it's cloudy, but it was mainly sunny, was spotted clouds outside. It was a little bit windy.
Organisms smelled, felt, heard: There was still duckweed lying on the pond. Trees including Oak trees, lots of pine trees, sugar maples, hemlock trees, and so on. There still was a bit of moss on the ground. Lots of different birds that included a woodpecker, mainly robins, a few ducks in the pond, and a few other birds that I was not able to identify. There was a lot of white tail, deer tracks on the ground, including right by the water.  A lot of leaves have fallen from the previous time I was there. There also was a change in the path I walked on to get to the pond; people had been illegally cutting down a few trees on my families property. The trees are now starting to change colors, due to the fall weather coming in. A lot of the grasses on the ground are starting to die, and the bugs are starting to die down.
Changes: Again, the fall weather has changed the leaves into a darker shade of colors and some are starting to fall. The duck weed is starting to go away, not as many birds are out in the forest, a lot of plants are starting to die, and many of the animals seem to be going away.

  1. Come see me a minute about your day length.
    Good descriptions! These are going to help you clearly see changes. Good work! Are you noticing any patterns in the leaf color change (location? species? etc.)?
