My second blog post of how all things are doing at my location.

 Today is September 27, I went down to my site of study today, the air was warm at a healthy 67 degrees Fahrenheit. I arrived there at 1:12PM. There were other people walking around with their D\dogs and children. It was a great day to be out, It was nice and sunny, but not blazing because I was amongst the trees. The amount of daylight i had was 11 hours and 58 minutes. They squirrels were alive and climbing(picture below), As well as trying to drop a good many acorns on me. However they missed those bombing 3+ times. The crickets were making noises that I assumed were for mating, I heard this a lot for the hour that I was there. I heard several small birds tweeting, as well as one large raven or crow, I honestly don't know the difference. A bug also crawled on me as well, which I flicked away with my pencil. I felt bad after i did that because I am almost certain that in the Bible it says somewhere to respect all creation and flicking a bug is not honoring that. While I was sitting at the bench where I like to take notes at my site, I noticed that around the large dead looking tree that was in front of me, there were no plants around it, Then I developed a theory why. I though that perhaps the roots around it took the nutrients while it was alive so there were not enough nutrients for any other plants to grow around the tree, Or there was no enough space for other plants to form roots there because the big trees roots were always in the way. However, there was moss groqing around the tree, and moss does not have roots so that could be why no plants with roots grew there, noting with roots had room for their roots to grow because the big trees roots were in the way. after thinking that, i felt like some sort of genius, or my way of thinking felt smart at least. Now, about the colors that I saw. I noticed that despite at being fall there were still no fall colors, everything was still very green, but I would suppose that would be because its still early fall. there was also almost no wind while i was out there, maybe 3 mph.

Now, for the pictures.

Here is a photo of some moss:

Here is a photo of the picture that I take every time:

Here is a photo of where I am conducting Original Research and how wind speed influences water flow rate, today it was pretty slow:

And here is a photo of a patch of grass i was curious about:

Here is a photo of the a pesky squirrel(look closely):

And here is a photo of some cool rocks:
