Field Study #3
10/11/18 6:45-7:15 pm. For my third visit at my field study location, it was rather chilly at 47 degrees Fahrenheit. The length of the day was 11 hours and 13 minutes. There was wind coming from the Northeast at 13 mph. For this visit I did not see or hear any organisms. This was a difference from my previous two visits; I had seen at least one bird each time up until today. I was very thankful for my warm coat as I sat and took in the nature around me. After a very busy past few days, it was wonderful to sit back and relax for a short while. Since I had no animals to watch, I took the time to draw some leaves and sticks at my feet; I found that I am no artist, but it was fun to do. One other difference I noticed from last time, was that the small creek was larger and flowing more rapidly than previously. I assume this was happening due to the amount of rain we've had the past week.

8/31/18 5:05-5:40 pm. For my first visit at my field study location, it was 80 degrees Fahrenheit, and the length of the day was 13 hours and 12 minutes. It was gorgeous weather, sunny with a light breeze coming from the North; I was surrounded by the sounds of insects buzzing about, paired with the rustling of the leaves in the trees overhead. The crystal clear water in the small creek was silent as can be. I saw a small group of fish swimming underneath a fallen log; I saw the greens in the grass and other plants surrounding me. I felt and heard the crunch of leaves long fallen underneath my feet. Then a sharp bite; a mosquito had bit my leg. I saw a single bird fly overhead through a break in the canopy of trees. I noticed some deer tracks in the sand by the water. Overall, I felt peaceful and content to be isolated for a short timeframe. Since this is my first visit, I cannot compare any changes or differences. I will be, however, prepared to notice the changes that are to come ...
