Field Study #2

-
🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳
This time when I went out to my location I noticed that a few things had changed. One was 
pretty obvious, the temperature has DROPPED. For the last field study I remember that I was in a tank top and still warm. Today I was wearing a whole winter coat and wished I was wearing more. Another difference was that there was actually quite a bit of growth. Especially when taking my picture from the same place as last time, I noticed that it had many more leaves/branches around it. 
🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳

Organisms I noticed were:
Trees: Many different kinds all over the place
Plants: I couldn't tell you what they were all called but there were lots of non-tree plants as well, a typical amount for woods I think.
Bugs: There were lots of bugs too. Not anymore than usual but enough that I noticed them. 
Birds: I hear lots of birds in my backyard, today was no different.
And as you will see in my EDD, Moss: LOTS of moss, mostly just around the base of trees.

My Same Spot Picture:

Temperature: 57'
Date + Time: 5:30 on Thursday Sept 29
Present Climate Conditions: Windy, cloudy, cold.
Length of day: 11 hours, 53 minutes
Awe and Stewardship: When I really have to observe my backyard for this project, I find that I get a much better look at the nature around me than when I am not actively observing. I notice so much more and am much more appreciative and in awe of God's creation.

    Glad you are sensing some awe! Sometimes we just need to slow down a little and look around! Start watching for patterns in color change and leaf fall. All of this looks great.

   ❅ ❅ ❅ ❅ ❅ ❅ ❅ There were definitely a lot of changes between my 4th and 5th field studies. The most noticeable, which you will see in my pictures, was that it finally snowed! Personally, I am not a fan of the winter, but I can't deny that the snow is beautiful. There wasn't very much snow yet, but about 2 inches was covering my entire backyard. The leaves are also almost completely off of the trees which makes my backyard look a lot more bare. It was also FREEZING outside. Another note is that the  length of day has continued to drop which has made getting these pictures in the daylight even harder.  ❅ ❅ ❅ ❅ ❅ ❅ ❅ Organisms I noticed were: - Trees : The trees are finally rid of all the leaves but other than that they are the same as they have been. - Plants : Many different plants, nothing different than usual except that they don't have leaves anymore.  They are more of a weird collection of sticks at this point. - Birds:  Still birds, which is a bit su...

🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂 It was such a beautiful day out when I did my 3rd Field Study.  The leaves have started to change  colors, and it wasn't too cold, I also saw so many animals. A couple of changes include; the obvious changing of colors, the increase in numbers of squirrels , and the decrease in numbers of toads. For the past couple of months there have been so many toads all over my backyard, but they seem to finally be leaving. However, as my dog keeps reminding me, there are plenty of squirrels to take their place. I did a sketch during this visit and while I was sitting down to do that, a ton of squirrels were running around in the trees above me. I narrowly avoided being hit in the head by acorns on more than one occasion.  🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂 Organisms I noticed were: Trees : Many different kinds all over the place, nothing new with them expect they've started changing colors. Plants : Lots and lots of plants, tons of different kinds too. Deer : While I was doing a sketch, I actual...
