Image
Photos:  September 6  September 27 October 12 October 27  November 8  Date: 11/8/25 Time: 3:45  Climate Conditions: This visit was really cold it was also pretty windy so it felt colder than it might have been. It was cloudy but not dark itw as quite bright out even though it was quite cloudy.  Temperature: 43 degrees Length of day: Sunrise at 7:28 am, Sunset at 5:26 pm  Organisms observed: I didn't really see any organisms at all. It was quite cold so there were not many people walking the trail and it had been quiete for most of the time I had been there. Since I was not able to see or hear anything like a squirrel I was a lot more focused on the plants and the trees which were all leafless by now and I saw a group of ants crawling down one of the trees. This study was quite quiet and there was not very many things to spot especially organism wise.  Changes noticed since last visit: The parking lot was empty and the trail itself was quiet the am...

Fourth Visit

Image
 Photos; Date: 10/27/25  Time; 6:46 Climate conditions: It was pretty chilly but clear. the sun was out but it was beginning to get darker.  Temperature: 48 degrees Length of day: Sunrise at 8:13 am, Sunset at 7:05 pm Organisms observed: I didn't really see as many organisms as last time, there was one squirrel that ran along the path. I heard a bird coming from the north. I heard some rustling of leaves coming from farther down but i couldn't find what it was but it was probably another squirrel.  Changes noticed since last visit: The path was almost entirely covered in leaves. Most of the trees had a lot less leafs than last time. Most of the orange leaves had fallen off of them. Most of the green to be seen is practically gone.

Third Visit

Image
Photos:    Date: 10/12/25 Time: 5:06  Climate Conditions: Sunny pretty chilly Temperature: 67 degrees Length of day: Sunrise at 7:54 am, Sunset and 7:05 pm  Organisms observed: I saw a squirel climbing one of the trees, a spider walking in the trial, I could constantly hear a bird coming from the north but wasn't sure what it was, the cicaidas were being quite loud.  Changes noticed: Some of the trees are beggining to change in color, there were a lot more leaves in the trail. It felt a lot chilier than both the other times I have visited, there were not as many people. A lot of the plants in general seem to be changing in color not just the leaves of trees. There are fewer organisms that I could spot.
