Field Study #4




Field Notes

Date: October 30, 2022
Time: 12:02 p.m.
Temperature: 56°
Climate Conditions: Partly sunny, hazy, no breeze. 
Length of Day: 10 hours 24 minutes
What I Heard: I heard the buzzing of the phone towers, birds, and could finally hear the creek babbling, all of these things I heard very clearly. Mostly because every time I visit my spot, it's windy or rainy, so it was nice to finally be able to appreciate the serenity of my little spot. 
What I Noticed: The pictures a little blurry, but as you can see, it changed so quickly over the past two weeks! You can see the sky for the first time because almost all of the leaves on the trees are fallen, and the leaves on the fallen curved tree are all gone and have been replaced with berries---

The berries that are now on the branches 

I also researched why foam/suds continued to appear in the water. And I found that it's the natural result of decomposition of plants and animals.  Is there any reason, or certain cycles, that would be the reason I'm seeing more "suds" now than I did months earlier?

Field Notes Date: Sunday November 14 Time:  1:36 p.m. Temperature:  36° Climate Conditions:  Windy, cloudy, snowing on and off  Length of Day:  9 hours 51 minutes What I Heard:  I heard  the buzzing of the phone towers as per usual, the wind blowing, and some birds overhead.  What I Noticed:  There was some snow on the ground, yet most of it had already melted by the time I went on Sunday (which I was disappointed by). Also, the eagle nest I saw a couple weeks ago is now gone. I wonder why it's gone, and if the nest "vanishing" was intentional or not.    I noticed that there were some snowflakes  that accumulated on leaves (like in the picture)   while the rest of the snow went on the ground and  melted. And I wondered why it wasn't the same for  the snow like in the picture.  A more lot of the trees have snapped in half, like the one in this picture. I'm assuming it's due to the stronger weather and th...
