For November 15, done on December 9

  It started to snow pretty heavy today (finally) and there weren't any animals out other than some birds that I heard while walking out. I noticed that the snow was very light and fluffy, I know that it sometimes can be thicker so I liked how fluffy it was. The pond was quite filled which I found interesting because I don't remember it raining previously so i'm not totally sure how that happened. 

October 30 Field Study

this time I did not notice many changes. All I saw that was different really was that the tree's had less leaves and something kinda interesting is that the pond looked more full. I don't know how it got filled up but i'm thinking it might look more full because of all the algae and theres just so much it looks like it's more full. I heard more birds this time than frogs, and my thinking is that maybe some baby birds had just hatched, or something along those lines.   

October 15 Field Study

Image
It had rained pretty good the night before so the pond had filled up a little bit more than usual, and this time there wasn't as many frogs that would jump in as I approached it. I did this field study on October 15 at 10:30 am. It was a warm 45 degrees out when I did the field study and some changes I noticed were that the leaves on the trees had fallen off more, and another thing that I thought was interesting was that the algae in the pond didn't seem as thick as usual.

Overview of field study

Some things that I noticed was that there was a lot of algae more algae on top than usual and the water was more brown. Some more things that happened while taking the photos were lots of frogs were hopping into the water off the bank and there was a family of ducks that had flown away as I walked out to the pond.
