Field Study #6

Image
  November 16th 4:00 pm, 9mph wind. 62% humidity. Sunrise was at 7:50 and sunset was at 5:12 so length of day was 8-9 hours. Today was very silent, I did not hear many animals or see any and the water was still because it is icing over. The water surface area is getting smaller, from last time.

November 15th 5:00 pm,  Climate is very snowy and cold with a degree of 33F. There was wind of about 2 mph. Sunrise was at 7:37Am and sunset was at 5:19pm so it was about a 9 hour and 40 minute day. I saw a deer and some people across the pond and I could see the snow falling. Since the last time I visited, the temperature decreased dramatically and there is snow this time. The water level also is at a resting level and hasn't changed much but I am sure it will ice over soon.

There were frogs out still, and the water levels were getting lower and the colors were more dull than last time. Water was more crowded with sand and plants.

 It is October 16th, 6pm. Today there was an 8 mph wind and 0.05 inches of rain scattered throughout the day. The temperature was 48 F and it was an 11 hour day with a sunrise and 8am and sunset at 7pm. The wind was most of what I heard, there were people on the trails I heard as well, the water was splashing on a log behind me that I heard as well. The water levels have gotten lower and the grass and plants around the pong have turned brown or very dark green and no longer have bright colors.
