Field Study

Date: October 31, 2022 Time: 2:52-3:20pm  Climate Conditions: Small amount of wind, cloudy, a little bit of a drizzle  Temperature: 61°F Length of day: 8:17am-6:37pm  Changes: There were a TON more leaves on the ground compared to the last time I was there and I heard a lot more animal noises during this visit Here are 2 pictures of the location:   Here are the pictures of the plants:  I still could not locate where the plant went so I decided to just keep taking the organic material from the same location  Organic Material Samples:  Video of the sounds: 

Date: October 15, 2022 Time: 2:09 pm - 2:41 pm  Climate conditions: Sunny with 17mph winds Temperature: 49°F Length of day: 7:57am-7:01pm Changes I saw: I noticed the change of the colors of the trees drastically since the last time I visited and the temperature has definitely dropped.  Questions: Does the change of the temperature and seasons effect the organic material at all? I also could not locate the exact 1st plant I was measuring the organic material of so I chose the same type of plant but not the exact one. So I wonder, what happened to the other plant that I was measuring?  Awe & Stewardship reflection: I think that it is incredible how just over the course of a few weeks that the leaves have all of a sudden changed. God has given Michigan such beautiful seasons that we get to experience and see with our own eyes. We take for granted sometimes the Earth we live on but I think it is truly wonderful the seasons He has provided. And I definitely notice it...
