Final Field Study # 6

 For this last field study visit I went on Sunday, November 27, 2022

Sunrise was at 7:50 am and Sunset was at 5:13 pm

I was there from 4:44 pm - 4:58 pm 

It had been a rainy, partly cloudy day, and was still like that on my visit. 

It was around 36 degrees. 


I noticed many things this last trip

- the sounds from the neighbors and nearby roads was still louder than usual due to the leaves falling

I could hear my neighbors yelling and could hear their dog barking (probably at me lol) and heard cars splash through the puddles on the dirt road nearby.

I also heard more birds than last time.

I also saw a jet in the sky:


And some deer tracks in the dirt (maybe they knocked over the pokeweed?) 


There were also some new things I noticed...

The big pine tree might have once been a hunting stand there were wood boards on a few of the branches:



The plants with flowers that I noticed in my field study area are in other parts of the woods and grow in tall clumps also near pokeweed:

Field Study #4

 For this field study I decided to visit at night on October 30, 2021.  I was there from 8:50-9:00. It was 55 degrees with no rain, almost no rain, and almost no stars visible.  Sunrise was at 8:15 am and sunset was at 6:39 pm.  I noticed many different things on this visit because it was night.  The most noticeable difference was the absence of birds. There was no chirping or flapping. The area was mostly silent except for a few frogs croaking and a slight breeze.  I believe this is in part because of the time but also because I had traveled by quad, and that probably scared off any nocturnal critters.  I also noticed how much more obvious car sounds were, they were much louder because everything else was still. There was also the smell of smoke in the air because people had been burning leaves in the neighborhood, and the smell of exhaust because of the quad.

Field Study #5 changes and notices

Image
The main thing I noticed this trip was the snow. The coming of the snow changed almost everything except for the basic structure of my location. Almost all the trees (except for the pines) had lost their leaves and almost all color had been lost, the grass wasn't green and the plants either brown or white     The only non-pine leaves that were green were a few pricker leaves which was very surprising to me There were also a lot of snow tracks, along with the sound of snow falling both from the sky and from the trees around me
