Site Observations Day 2, Site #'s 1, 2, 3, 4

Site 1: Pond
Going towards the pond, I heard leaves rustling, ducks making noise, the wind, some buses/ cars.
I saw ducks, buses, a pond, grass, a dock, deer footprints, dirt, trees.
I felt cold and warm at the same time because of the sun hitting me and the wind, I also felt the wind.

Site 2: Creek
I heard leaves rustling, wind, leaves crunching as my fellow class stepped on them
In the creek I saw a Crayfish, I also saw creek, leaves, branches, birds, thorns, hill, and the creek was really long and I did not know where it ended and some parts was very wide.
At the creek I felt warm and heat because the sun was right above me, I also felt pain from the thorns stick my skin.

Site 3: Vernal Pool
At the Vernal Pool, you will usually find smaller fish, frogs, usually smaller animals that hide from predators. The pool is a safe hiving to those animals so that they can hide and lay their eggs.

Site 4: Nut Hatcher
I saw a nut hatcher, it was looking for food in a pine tree, so it was pecking holes in the tree to try and find food.  

Site Observations Day 1 ie. 1, 2, 3

 Site #1
In Site 1, I heard the train, wind, and trucks coming to a stop.
I saw with my own two eyes three birds sitting on the High Schools roof, I saw grass, mud, my fellow classmates, woods, clouds, and the sun.
I felt the cold, blistering wind hitting my face, the temperature was cold, and the warm sun also hitting my face.


Site #2
In Site 2, I heard wind, birds, leaves rusting as my fellow classmates stepped on them as we kept on moving through the woods.
I saw a feather (turkey), trees, birds in the trees.
I felt colder but their was not really no wind because me and my class was between the trees, so that equaled less wind.

Site #3
In Site 3, I heard the wind whistling, the leaves rustling as I walked under them.
I saw more trees, leaves, deer tracks, and stumps with lichen with is fungus with an union with alga with a greenish, gray color.
I felt less wind and colder but as I came out the woods I felt less cold but more wind because we were leaving the trees.
