Ella's Biology Field Study

 Picture of my spot:  - Date: October 4, 3:08 - Climate: Fall, crisp air, not humid - Temperature: 65 degrees - The length of the day: 7:44 AM to 7:19 PM - Organisms I smelled/felt/heard/seen:  I heard birds chirping, but even less than last time, still a decent amount. I can still hear the water flowing, a little faster than usual. I heard leaves falling again, this time a slight breeze. I could smell trees, and it smelled a lot like fall. It smelled almost of rotting wood this time. I saw birds, and lots of squirrels. - Changes noticed since last visit: Its colder, and there are a lot more trees that are colorful, and a lot more leaves on the ground. I am noticing less animals, much less bees compared to last time. - Other questions or observations: I am noticing that some trees are changing colors while others don't even look close to changing colors. Why is it that they change at different times? Other pictures taken from my spot:

 

 

 

Picture of my spot:  - Date: September 27, 5:30 - Climate: Early fall, crisp air, not humid - Temperature: 71 degrees - The length of the day: 7:38 AM to 7:30 PM - Organisms I smelled/felt/heard/seen: I could hear the water flowing although it doesn't flow very fast. I heard some birds chirping in the trees, but not very many compared to my last visit. I kept on hearing leaves falling and squirrels in trees which kept making me jump. I could still smell the musty water, and I could smell some trees and lots of fresh air. I didn't see many animals but still some birds, like a blue jay. I saw some bees flying around. - Changes noticed since last visit: The leaves are beginning to change colors, and with that less leaves are on the trees. There are less flowery plants, mainly just greenery left. I am hearing less bugs as fall is beginning to come quicker. - Other questions or observations: I felt like the water levels might have dropped even more, but I couldn't really tell. D...

Picture of my spot:  - Date: August 26, 7:45 - Climate: late summer, and it is humid - Temperature: 74 degrees - The length of the day: 7:02 AM to 8:28 PM - Organisms I smelled/felt/heard/seen were musty water: Warm humid air, I heard crickets, bees, tree frogs, birds chirping, the water flowing, lots of greenery, and bugs. - Changes noticed since last visit: None because it is my first visit - Other questions or observations: The water used to be much higher when I would hike here when I was younger, does the level just depend on the year, or is it going to continue to drop water levels?
