Observation, Site 4

When we were walking through the woods and heard "quacks" and saw dozens of geese on the pond. If you look closely you can kind of see them. I felt the wind and heard the geese and the leaving blowing on the trees.

Observation, Site 3

I was walking through the woods a stumbled upon this dead tree and if you look cosley you are able to see a bunch of holes. I think termites caused this damage, but there definitley could be other insects involed.

Observation, Site 2

I walked down to the creek and looked up and saw a whole bunch of these holes. It does look like an animal could live in it, but we're not sure. There were not any actual tracks but there were marks.

Observation, site 1

I walked down and almost stepped in this hole, it doesn't look big in the picture but in person it is. We couldn't find tracks outside of the hole so we don't know for sure what animal lives in there, but i think it is a goundhog's home.

This is a picture of a fungus shaped like a mushroom. The texture is smoth but kind of rough at the same time. It was very cold out so they can break eaisly.

This is a picture of scraped bark. Maybe from a deer's antlers. The tree was dead but the scrape seemed fairly new. We also saw a bird nest in a tree that was next to the one shown above, but we didn't see any birds but we did hear them.

Observation Site Number4

This is a picture of a old smashed up car. It had a lot of holes and rust on the exterior, indicating it was there for a long time; most of the car was destroyed from weather and use. We felt the wind and saw squirrels roaming around the woods and car.

Observation Site Number3

This is a picture of moss, living on the bottom of a tree. Leaves covered it up so we had to remove some of the leaves from the surronding moss.

Observation Site Number2

The lake was completely frozen, but there were holes in the lake; maybe from where animals fell through the ice. We also saw tracks of animals across the ice. I felt the cold wind and nearby squirrles running in the woods and i could hear the frozen leaves crunching under my feet.

                      This is a picture of Algae, from site number1.

                                    

At this site we felt the wind blowing, we could smell the scent from the algae, and we heard the birds chirpping. (pictures by Kim D.)
