Field Study #3 

Date: October 14, 2022

Time: 3:40 pm, Length of day (daylight) 11 hours 7 minutes. 

Temperature: 52 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Weather: Cloudy with a slight breeze 



Notes: The temperature was not awfully chilly but because of the wind, the air felt a lot colder. Most of the flowers on my previous field study have all lost their petals, however, I managed to spot some flowers that have retained their petals. For some reason, the cicadas were even more loud than they normally are, there was always a constant droning buzz all around me. Today I did not spot much wildlife,  only a few chickadees and a rabbit.

Field Study #4  Date: October 29, 2022  Time: 3:40pm Length of day: 10 hours, 52 minutes Temperature: 65 degrees Fahrenheit, 64 percent humidity  Weather: Sunny with a slight overcast    October 29, 2022 October 14, 2022  Notes  The Landscape has changes drastically since the last field study, if you look at the two pictures above, you can easily see the difference. First of all, the red bushes that were there previously are still there, however they have just lost all of their foliage. In the picture labeled October 14, the trees in the background had retained most of their leaves. The second picture shows some of the trees but they seem to lost a vast majority of their leaves. Most of the flowers that I had took pictures of in previous posts have all died off, this is the only one that still had its petals. Most of the cicadas I had heard before have quieted or have died and the creek was as still as before.

  Field Study #1:  Date : September 6, 2022.  Time : 3:10 pm.  Temperature : 82 degrees Fahrenheit.  Weather : Clear Skies, Small Breeze.                                                                                  Video of my location ^  Notes   These are a few of the local plants found near the creek, I am not positive but I believe the plant on the left is purple loosestrife which is an invasive species (update: I now think it is clasping venus' looking glass). The plant on the right looks like some kind of fern but I don't know which one it is exactly.

Field Study #6  Date:  November 26, 2022 Time:  11:30  Length of day:  9 hours 49 minutes Temperature:  52 degrees Fahrenheit  Weather:  Cloudy, slight breeze. Close up of a deer print left in the mud  Grass near the creek Picture of the location Notes  Final day, the weather wasn't awful even though it was late November. I was out for half an hour before to sketch my sound map and stayed another fifteen minutes later to finish my sketch. During that time I was able to really take in my surroundings and notice smaller details I overlooked earlier. Because the grass was all flattened, I could easily reach the creek and I found a couple more crayfish holes as well as the deer print in the picture above.  I have no idea what the round thing growing through the grass is in the fourth picture. At first I thought that it was a seed but the outside was super hard and not all of the grass had the weird growth. My second guess is that it may...
