Visit #4

Date: Saturday, October 19

Time: 12:40-1:10 pm

Conditions: Sunny, 66º

Length of day: 10 hours, 50 minutes


Organisms...

Seen: Plants, trees, squirrel running on path

Heard: Critters running on leaves, distant cars, distant construction

Felt: My dog and his slobber

Smelled: Corn, fresh air

Changes that I noticed from my last visit is that fall is in full swing! there was lots of fallen leaves, and orange leaves, a lot less birds chirping, and a lot less bugs. Also, unfortunately the parking lot is now under construction, so I had a lot longer walk today! 


Some pictures from this visit:





Here is some pictures from the walk to my location + another picture featuring Bo:
