Field Study #5

 





Notes:

Date and time: Tuesday November 15, 2022, 3:00pm

Climate and present weather: The temperature is around 34 degrees, it is pretty cloudy and there is a breeze that is around 12 miles per hour. its very dry out and feels like it could snow but I don't think it will. its been snowing all day kinda on and off. The temperature is about a 30 degree difference from last time I can tell the weather is turning towards winter. And the snow provides more of a quiet feeling to the woods. 

Temperature: 34 degrees, 30 degrees colder than last time.  

Length of day: 9 hours and 45 minutes

Organisms: I found and compared the fungi I found last time and it was dead and like shriveled up on the side of the log. also as i walked back there were not frogs jumping into the pond nor were there cricket noises. I did see and hear some squirrels chattering along with maybe a deer that ran away into the woods when I got there.

Changes since I was last there: a definite and most notable change was there is snow on the ground. the fungi that i found was now dead. it seems to be more of a lifeless time except for the squirrels and the deer they will always hang around until deep winter. But another change was there were no frogs or frog noises, there was also no cricket noises. The woods was pretty quiet and boring today.

Length of day: 11 hours and 47 minutes Organisms: When I was walking passed the bond I immediately noticed less frog noises and less crickets, there was still and lot of little buzzing noises from I think cicadas, a few crickets here and there, I saw a few squirrels running along the branches of the pine trees and the oak trees. I noticed there was a bunny sitting under the fallen tree I couldn't get a picture because when I got closer it ran off. unfortunately no deer this time I think there were deer last time because when I went it was closer to night and they like moving around w...

  Notes Date and time:  Monday October 31, 2022 Climate and present weather:  There is a lot of cloud cover, It had rained overnight and it is kinda drizzling so it is a little bit damp, the air felt kinda thick almost like kinda a fog.  Temperature:  The temperature today is 60 degrees this is cooler than the last time that I came Length of day : 10 hours 21 minutes Organisms:  When I walked up to the pond there were frogs that were still chirping and this surprised me because of the weather. As i walked further into the woods I saw that the log was growing new moss and fungi. Then there were 3 deer that ran away about 80 yards away from me, I noticed there were scrapes on trees from bucks and that was probably why. I went hunting the night before and I saw a few doe but no bucks. There are plenty of signs of bucks thought.  Changes since I was last there: There were a lot more dead leaves and you could notice the woods looking less full than usual an...
